Dry conditions and high temps will increase wildfire risk this weekend. While using equipment outside, look behind you regularly to check for fires, park on gravel or pavement when possible, and keep water nearby. If you spot a wildfire, call 911. https://t.co/gXYJ4UkN1H

Minnesotans love their state parks. With new #GetOutMORE (Modernize Outdoor Recreation Experiences) funding, we will improve experiences and accessibility at parks and on our trails. Parks & Trails Director Ann Pierce talks about some of the improvements you can expect to see.

DYK that trees are like natural air conditioners? The shade from trees can reduce temperatures by several degrees, creating a cool oasis on hot summer days. Take a break under a leafy canopy and feel the refreshing difference!

Cheeseburger in paradise! 🌲🍔🌲 A DNR forester enjoys a field lunch of the prior day's leftovers at Finland State Forest during spring seedling planting. Just a day in the life of a forester!

Built in the 1950s, MN's largest cool water hatchery needs critical repairs. The One MN budget proposal includes funds for a new Waterville Hatchery & improvements to fish ponds to ensure sustainable stocking for walleye, northern pike & muskellunge across the state. #mnleg

Nothing better than visiting #MNStateParks on a sunny Free Park Day! #FreeParkFriday #OptOutside #OnlyInMN

[Minnesota State Parks and Trails @mnstateparks]

The leaves are off the trees and the clocks have fallen back - that means it's time for us to remind you of the next free entry day, Friday, November 25! Park at a park, not at a shopping center. 😃
