I was looking for places to shoot north of Denver in July, last time I was near the Allenspark area I ran into the no shooting signs, there was a moratorium on shooting in those areas. Does anyone know if they have that figured out and if shooting is now possible again? Also are the Pawnee areas still open?

There are several spots open at CR 91 (take CR 57 north from US 14, then east on CR91 for 1/2 mile and you'll see the turn). I was just up there yesterday and there were plenty of people shooting all day long.

I've been looking into the grasslands as a shooting area. Is the map that was posted by the OP the area closest to Ault? I don't wanna get lost wandering the grasslands for 40 years!! I also don't want to end up shooting on someone else's private property. Also, my friends and I definitely believe in collecting brass.

Hi Epyon,
yes that is the area closest to Ault.
As you head east from Ault on highway 14 you go straight for roughly 5 to 10 miles, then the highway makes a sweeping left and you're heading Northeast. A mile or so past that sweeping turn is where you get onto that map. The sign for road 88 and the sweeping right turn where road 57 takes off are totally obvious. You won't have a problem unless you are brain-dead.

Awesome, I'll check it out some time soon. I've got a magazine full of #4 buckshot and two boxes of low recoil slug itching to be used! On top of target loads! As well as half a box of hollow points and 100 target rounds of .40 cal!

The mapped spot has been absolutely overran the last few years with irresponsible turds. There are always kids now who screw around and always have magpul decked out AR's. Tired of it, go home. By screwing around I mean shooting at each other's feet (I've seen this twice) and horrible muzzle discipline.

I just went out to 88 & 61 after work and had the place to myself for 2 hours. A good time was had by all.

Was at the 88/61 spot today... had the place to ourselves, didn't even see a vehicle pass by on the road the entire time. Place is a little messy, but not really what I'd call trashed. Cleaned up what we could but not enough to make much of a dent.
Nice place, but don't go if its gonna be really hot. Couple trees provide a little shade but nowhere to shoot from them.
