Some of the areas off-limits during the subsistence season include the Lisianski Peninsula (State Mental Health Trust) and Katlian Bay (Shee Atika), along with the

Note: Federal Subsistence Hunting Regulations can be downloaded online. Print copies of the regs are also available at local sporting goods stores.
