I want to be able to put what I have read to practice and hone my skills in a "more real" environment.

I am on the Eastern edge of Aurora, so "going to the mountains" means that I go all the way through the metro area then to the mountains. Perhaps there is some nice place others have utilized, public land, etc, that others have had a successful time using.

If you have a less than public place or whatever just PM me.
Are one of those natives that don' t know you have mountains west of you???

There is more than you need just "up the hill"

You didn't mention shooting. So your option are pretty much unlimited.

Sorry to sound harsh, but I moved here for the mountains. Blows my mind how many locals I meet in the 25-35 age bracket who have never been to the mountains!!! WTF?
