Two new firearm restrictions will begin on November 12, 2022, in Gallatin County due to ongoing misuse of State Trust Land associated with recreational shooting. The Department of Natural Resources and Conservation identifies the misuse to include public safety concerns, shooting debris left on site, and concerns that private property will be damaged. Alongside the restrictions beginning on November 12, there will also be additional seasonal restrictions in the spring of 2023. The mix of temporary and year-round restrictions are intended to allow recreational access on public lands while curbing violations or misuse of State Trust Lands
