    Put that into Google, you should be able to see it clearly. I take Cty Rd 43 off of 285 in between Pine Junction and Bailey, eventually this leads to the Harris Park Community and shortly after that is Forest Service road 108 which takes you to the shooting area.

    I seem to have bad luck at Harris Park. Every time I've gone up there for the past 3 years it's been closed for one reason or another (usually fire danger.)

    Haven't been up there this year but hope to make it up there soon.

    How were the washout ruts ? It can be a little tricky in a few spots, not the place to take the Mini Cooper!

    Passable. I took an Impreza wagon up there a few years back and it was ok. The part where you have to cross the "stream" is pretty rocky though, maybe if it's one of those all wheel drive minis you'll be ok but I wouldn't take a standard one up there personally.

    I'd like to try Harris Park for shooting and am wondering how it is for multiple groups of shooters. If I go on a Saturday and there are shooters already there, is there room for me to shoot too?

    Plenty of room for lot of people. Unless there is a bus up there you're good.

    It's not a bad idea to take some dunnage up for crossing that stream in the spring. Rocks and logs are scarce close-by. A few short 4x4 blocks, broken cinder block and paver pieces can make a difference.
    Great shooting spot and usually plenty of room, I think the good shooters outnumber the bad as far as safe firearm practices, courtesy and common sense goes, but there are exceptions.
    If you haul it in, haul it out and have a safe time. Harris park might be a prime target for the BLM, or whoever, to shut down for good. Respect the rules and then some.
