North Dakota’s hunting enthusiasts have plenty of opportunities even as the season progresses into late winter, with upland game hunting extending through January 4, 2026. In this period, hunters can pursue pheasants, grouse, and turkeys, while the late-season waterfowl hunting features varied regulations depending on the region. According to Cayla Bendel, marketing coordinator for North Dakota Game and Fish, light geese will also be available until January 4, adding to the region’s rich hunting landscape.
In addition to upland game and waterfowl, outdoor activities include an extended archery season and squirrel hunting opportunities running until February 28. As the weather gets colder, reports emphasize the importance of safety precautions while hunting near ice, advising that good ice conditions must be monitored closely. For those preparing for an outdoor adventure, Bendel encourages taking safety measures, especially in winter, to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience in North Dakota’s vast wilderness.
