I believe you must get a prospecting permit to hunt on State Land. I'd check with the State Land Department. Here's what I turned up. --- Arizona State Trust lands are not public lands such as National Parks or Federal Forests. Any use of State Trust land requires a permit from the Arizona State Land Department with a few exceptions. Permits are available in several formats to accommodate individual, family and group needs. The Minerals Section of the Arizona State Land Department (ASLD) is responsible for mining / mineral activities on State Trust land. Arizona State Land Department MINERALS SECTION 1616 West Adams Street Phoenix, Arizona 85007 602-542-4628 fax 602-542-3507 www.land.state.az.us Details for each mineral category can be obtained from ASLD's Minerals Section at 602-542-4628. **Note: Recreational mining or mineral collecting on State Trust land is prohibited --- Well that last part settles that... No mineral collecting (rock hounding). D'oh!
