Featherfin Wildlife Management Area
Featherfin Wildlife Management Area is a 2,800-acre (11 km2) Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Prince Edward, Appomattox, and Buckingham counties, Virginia. It covers forests and marshland along 10 miles (16 km) of the Appomattox River; many stands of hardwood and pine (primarily loblolly) may be found within its boundaries. Some of these are found on old farm fields.[2]
Featherfin WMA is owned and maintained by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. The area is open to the public for hunting, fishing, hiking, and primitive camping. Horseback riding is not permitted.[2] Access for persons 17 years of age or older requires a valid hunting or fishing permit, a current Virginia boat registration, or a WMA access permit.[3]
