The primary purposes of Curtiss Gale Wildlife Management Area (WMA) are for wildlife management, wildlife habitat management, and wildlife-dependent recreation. This WMA covers 46.3 acres and lies on the eastern side of the Oswego River, sandwiched between the river and County Route 57. The property was donated to DEC, and the deed restrictions do not allow hunting, trapping, or tree cutting.
