DNR announces temporary road and trail closures on Minnesota state lands
"These are normal spring closures that happen when roads and trails become wet and fragile," said Richard Peterson, recreation program coordinator for the DNR's Division of Forestry. "We ask that people use good judgment, obey the closures and frequently check the DNR website for updates."
Road conditions can change quickly. The DNR advises people to first check the individual state park, state trail or state forest web pages before planning trips to avoid being surprised and disappointed by temporary closures.
[[In-content Ad]]Road and trail users should pay particular attention to state forest closures. A closed forest means that all roads and trails are closed. Signs will be posted at entry points and parking lots. The closures include all unmarked roads and trails, unless specifically listed on the website.
Online road and trail condition information is updated every Thursday by 2 p.m.
For closures and updates, go to "Current Conditions" on the DNR Web site at www.dnr.state.mn.us/trailconditions, or call the DNR Information Center at 651-296-6157 or toll-free at 888-646-6367 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. weekdays.
For information on roads and trails on county land, contact the county directly.
