MDNR reminds snowmobilers most trails closed for season (April 8, 2008)

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) reminds snowmobilers that Grant-in-Aid snowmobile trails closed for the season on April 1; riding these trails without the landowner’s permission is trespassing. Also, the state is no longer grooming snowmobile trails.

The DNR urges snowmobilers to use caution when riding on the new snow that fell over the weekend throughout northern Minnesota.

“Many tree limbs have fallen and because of the large amount of snow, trees, branches and other hazards are difficult to see,” said Les Ollila, DNR Northeast Region Trails and Waterways supervisor. “We encourage people to enjoy the snow, but be extra careful.”
