What if I have a hunter, snowmobile or ATV trespassing on my property?

Trespass is the most frequent complaint landowners have against the recreational public. Always ask permission before entering private land.

Those who are trespassing are guilty of a misdemeanor, which is punishable by fines up to $1,000 and a sentence of 90 days in jail. If a landowner has a problem with trespassers, they should call the Sheriff's Office and a deputy or game warden will investigate the complaint.

To contact non-emergency 24-hour dispatch, call 507-334-4391 or toll free 866-727-5299.
