Montana State Prison Ranch Reopened to Hunters

Print

The Montana Correctional Enterprises (MCE) Ranch near Deer Lodge will open to hunting again beginning Saturday, Sept. 22.   The lands have been closed since Aug. 20 due to fire danger in the area.

Bowhunters are reminded that a valid MCE land access permit is required for hunting in the archery-only area, and archery hunters must enter the area through the checkpoint location.

For more information on the MCE Ranch rifle and archery-only areas, contact the Missoula FWP office.   For additional details on fire and drought-related restrictions and closures go to the FWP website home page at fwp.mt.gov and select the Drought & Fire icon.
