Oahe WMA Fire Ban Lifted

The North Dakota Game and Fish Department has lifted its ban on open fires on the Oahe Wildlife Management Area south of Bismarck and Mandan, which means that campers and anglers can again have campfires.  However, be aware of any county burn ban restrictions which may be in place since they include the WMA’s (https://www.nd.gov/des/).

Game and Fish implemented the fire ban in late April to reduce the potential for wildfires on this heavily wooded recreation area along the Missouri River.
