The Crow Wing County Board of Commissioners took action prohibiting recreational riding of off-highway vehicles (OHV) on forest trails passing through Crow Wing County administered public lands during the 2009 State firearms deer hunting season.
This restriction does not preclude the deer hunter, with a valid deer hunting license, to operate an off-highway vehicle (OHV) in accordance with existing State law.
This restriction is in effect from November 7-22, inclusive, in Zone 100 (north of CR #1 and east of State Highway 6) and November 7-15, inclusive, in Zone 200.
All recreational users of county forest lands are reminded to wear blaze orange while they are out in the field during this hunting season.
