The North Dakota Game and Fish Department’s Becoming an Outdoors-Woman program has openings for “Hike the Maah Daah Hey Trail” June 21-22.
This workshop is designed for women with previous hiking or backpacking skills, or who are in good physical condition. Participants will hike a 13-mile portion of the trail near the North Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Activity is strenuous due to rough terrain. The $30 fee includes group gear and transportation to and from the CCC Campground. Each participant must provide their own personal gear and meals.
BOW workshops are designed primarily for women with an interest in learning skills associated with hunting, fishing and outdoor endeavors. Although open to anyone age 18 or older, the workshops are tailored primarily to women who have never tried these activities or who are beginners hoping to improve their skills.
Women interested in attending the workshop can enroll online, or print an information brochure and enrollment form, at the Game and Fish website, gf.nd.gov. More information is available by contacting Nancy Boldt at 701-328-6312, or email [email protected].
MacLean Shooting Range to Close for Renovation
The MacLean shooting range located 15 miles southeast of Bismarck will be closed this summer for reconstruction and expansion. A closed sign will be posted at the entrance.
Improvements will include a shotgun range, handgun range, and a 100- and 200-yard rifle range. Construction is scheduled for June, July and August, with the range slated to open late summer.
MacLean Bottoms is 2 miles south of ND Highway 1804.
Two alternate public ranges that are open are Schmidt Bottoms and Wilton Mine Wildlife Management Area.
Schmidt Bottoms, located 13.4 miles south of Mandan on ND Highway 1806, was already reconstructed with a shotgun range, handgun range, and a 100- and 200-yard rifle range.
Wilton Mine Wildlife Management Area is approximately 2 miles east of Wilton.
