If your looking for public land, follow this link.
http://www.pgc.state.pa.us/land/maps/northwest.asp
It gives you close up maps of the land itself. It may take a bit more research to find the exact location of the lands. I personally hunt private lands here in PA. Hope this helps you some.
or you can do it by county. This one' s pretty neat

-just click on the county and it will give you the general area that the game lands is located, click on the game land number and it' ll pull up the map.

What do you know of Lawrence county? It will not let me see any of the game lands in that county for some reason. The others seem to be working though.

I can' t answer to Lawrence county but I can tell you that not all state game lands have been loaded onto their website yet. I think the website is new as of this summer and they are still working on getting some information on there.
I can tell you to avoid the state game lands in the northern section of allegheny county though.
Here is another forum that is mostly PA hunters. Maybe you can get some help there. Most guys won' t post their hunting spots online but they may send you a PM or email.
