Please be aware, as you set out in the woods. Wear blaze orange, and get a blaze orange collar for your dog (and maybe a bell).
Big game season opens today; Grouse season opens on the 20th.
I have noticed more hunters in the Loon Lake area, since the State purchased conservation easements to the South (Kushaqua tract) and North (Sable Highlands) of Route 26/old Route 99.
