CONCORD — Sunday, Sept. 1, was the beginning of fall hunting seasons in the Granite State, with the opening of black bear season. Here are some tips from state Fish and Game to help hunters, hikers and all outdoor enthusiasts have a safe and enjoyable fall:

• Be aware of your surroundings. This seems like common sense, but remembering and acknowledging that it is hunting season will improve your awareness. Know the dates of hunting seasons in your area. Many hunting seasons, especially firearms seasons, are much shorter in duration than most people realize.
