These rules apply to hunting and recreation on all private lands and State Trust Lands within the CO Bar Ranch. Violation of ranch rules or applicable state laws or regulations may result in immediate cancellation of the Ranch Access Pass, expulsion from CO Bar Ranch, and loss of privilege to hunt or recreate on this and all other ranches enrolled in the Arizona Game and Fish Department\u2019s Landowner Compact program.

2) Recreational users must have in their possession a valid Ranch Access Pass and copy of, or ability to demonstrate knowledge of, ranch rules. In addition, recreational users are required to have in their possession either a valid hunting license (and be scouting for or in pursuit of legal game) or a valid State Land Department Recreation Permit when recreating on State Trust Lands. Ranch Access Passes are available through sign-in boxes at kiosks located at the entry points into the CO Bar Ranch, or on-line from the AZGFD Landowner Relations Program Ranch Access web page<\/a>. Arizona State Trust Land Recreational Use Permits may be obtained here<\/a>.

At all other times, cross-country vehicle travel is prohibited and vehicles are allowed only on roads designated as \u201cOpen\u201d. Designated \u201cOpen\u201d road maps are posted at sign boxes at kiosks at the ranch entry points and online from the AZGFD Landowner Relations Program Ranch Access web page<\/a>.
