Deer fi****ms season is around the corner! 🦌 If you're an OHV rider, be aware of upcoming riding restrictions and plan accordingly.

During the fi****ms deer season, use of recreational off-highway vehicles (OHVs) is restricted in areas where hunters are permitted to use a rifle. The restrictions (which apply to state forest trails and access routes, but not to state forest roads) are in place to minimize conflicts between deer hunters and recreational riders. This year's recreational riding restrictions dates are below:

🔸Nov. 8–23 for the northeastern Minnesota 100 Series deer season (see map linked below).
🔸Nov. 8–16 for the Minnesota 200 and 300 Series deer season (see map linked below).
🔸Nov. 1: All OHV trails in southeastern MN are closed.

Licensed deer hunters may continue to use the routes in conjunction with their hunting activity:

🔸Before legal shooting time.
🔸From 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
🔸After legal shooting hours.
