Metal detecting is allowed, but area, season, digging, tool, or recovery limits apply.
Prohibited

Not confirmed
Not confirmed
The official sources reviewed do not give a clear answer for this place. That is not permission.
Conditions are separate
A permit does not automatically authorize digging, recovery, or keeping a find. A record may also show designated areas, seasonal dates, surface-only recovery, tool limits, campground restrictions, or reporting requirements.
Source strength
Records link to the official rule, policy, FAQ, map, or permit page that supports the answer. The source date tells you when it was last checked; it is not a promise that conditions have stayed the same.
When an answer is being updated
If an official source changes or conflicts with the page, the answer may be temporarily marked as updating. Open the official source before detecting there.
