Peshtigo Harbor Wildlife Area Shooting Range To Open For Firearm Sight-Ins
PESHTIGO, Wis. – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is opening its Peshtigo shooting range in Marinette County to anyone who wants to sight-in firearms.
The Peshtigo Harbor Wildlife Area Range, located at W2490 Hipke Road, will open on these dates for target shooters and deer hunters for sight-in before the gun deer season which starts on Nov. 21. The range will close after the Nov. 20 open hours.
The range will be open from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Nov. 6-8, Nov. 13-15 and Nov. 20.
Users are asked to review these guidelines.
- All visitors will be encouraged to bring their own PPE such as face masks, gloves and sanitizer with them to the range.
- To prevent gatherings, people waiting to utilize the range due to space availability will be encouraged to wait in their vehicles.
- Upon completion of shooting activities all customers will be encouraged to leave the property immediately to reduce lingering customers visiting with others.
