Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Lefthand canyon still open?
I searched around a bit but didn't see anything recent, is Lefthand Canyon still an option for shooting? Anyone been there or heard anything recently?
Last I heard they closed down because of noise complaint and the litter.
I drove up there a week ago and the "closed to shooting" sign looked very permanent.
One of my coworkers went up there last weekend shooting. He said there were several other groups of folks up there shooting as well.

We must be thinking of different spots then. I'm referring to that ravine at about mile marker 4 that used to resemble Beirut, about 200 yards past the offroad vehicle access road.Originally Posted by 82ndShooter

Thay is the exact place. I told him how to get there.

very odd - when I was there about nine days ago, the sign they had up explicitly forbidding shooting looked like it was built to last an eternity. -and there wasn't any evidence of recent shooting there at all. It was never a 'good' place to shoot, but it was close.
looks like its back open

I read your link. Is there a catch or some other document that supersedes it? Otherwise I'm headed out there this weekend.
To ask may be but a moment's shame, not to ask and remain ignorant is a lifelong shame.
