Thanks for the link to that map.

Are there any places up there where you can get set up to shoot 500 plus yards safely?

The place on the map called "biggest area" can be set up pretty long to the south. Zak Smith used to use it frequently for 300 and 400 yards at least (I don't remember how much further out he could get.) Only problem is you need to leave someone at the firing line to make sure some of the local yahoos don't shoot in that direction while you are walking to place your targets. It's like a cul de sac down in a gully and people shoot about 270 degrees out from it.

I just went out there (57&96) There were lots of people shooting and no no shooting sign's any where. Trash is starting to build up, Maybe we can get some kind of spring shoot and BBQ clean up going?

Yeah we just went out yesterday afternoon on 96, my first time out there, there were about seven or so trucks, not too busy and enough space for everyone. Didn't see any signs about no shooting.
