Tuolumne County, CA — Hunting is underway in the Stanislaus National Forest, and visitors are being advised on what types of clothes to wear.

This is the last weekend to use a bow and arrow as archery season ends on Sunday and then comes the rifle hunt season. Forest officials want to alert visitors to be careful. They advise, “It is a good idea to wear bright colors in the forest during this time!”
