RE: Salamanca, NY
Yes, Boyce Hill is state forest land and so were the rest of the properties that I posted. I didn't have my map handy last night at the time and I wasn't sure about Boyce Hill and where it was located. I never hunted there personally.
Now that I have my map all of the following are state forest lands within a 15-20 minute drive of Salamanca.
McCarthy Hill State Forest
Rock City State Forest
South Valley State Forest
Bucktooth State Forest
Elkdale State Forest
Dobbins State Forest
Nine Mile Creek State Forest
Wind Falls State Forest
Golden Hill State Forest
Allegany State Park
Raecher Hill State Forest
I couldn't find Boyce Hill State Forest on my map but I believe that also is within 15-20 minutes of Salamanca..
All together I'd guess your looking at close to 50,000 acres or moreof state forest land that is available to hunt within 15-20 minutes of Salamanca
