Due to illegal hunting pressure which occurs along the Skyline Drive during hunting season, portions of the Drive will again be closed to vehicles for certain night hours during hunting season.
Shenandoah National Park Superintendent J.W. Wade noted that several arrests were made last year, some for felony hunting-related charges. ' From Nov. 9, 1992, through Jan. 4, 1993, the Skyline Drive between Front Royal (Mile 0) and Thornton Gap (Mile 31), and between Swift Run Gap (Mile 65) and Rockfish Gap (Mile 105), will be closed daily between dusk and 8 a.m. The section of the Drive between Thornton Gap (U.S. 211) and Swift Run Gap (U.S. 33) will remain open 24 hours per day, weather permitting.
Wade said, “By closing portions of the Drive, rangers will be able to concentrate patrols on problem areas and increase hunter contacts along the Park boundary.”
“The Park has a reward program to assist in combating illegal hunting within the Park,” Wade said. A reward will be paid to any person who furnishes information that leads to the conviction of anyone who hunts, transports or attempts to transport illegally taken wildlife within Shenandoah National Park.
The identity of all persons furnishing information will be strictly confidential, and a person does not have to reveal his/her name.
If you have any information concerning illegal hunting activities within the Park, please call your nearest ranger station or Park Headquarters, 1-800-732-0911 (only in area codes 703 and 804) or 703999-2227.
