Orange Season just around the corner…
Getting time to pull out your orange vests. Various hunting seasons start next month.
As quoted in the DEM regulations:
All Other Users:
In addition to the above hunter requirements, all other users (hikers, bicyclists, horseback riders, etc) of State Management areas are required to wear 200 square inches of solid daylight fluorescent orange for the third Saturday in October to the last day of February and the last Thursday in April to the last day in May, annually.

Also consider if you run into others NOT wearing orange, tell them about the regulations.
be safe
