    Don't be a Dumb-Ass (pick up your S**t after you shoot)

    This too could be what your shooting areas look like if you don't pick up your shit.
    Why anyone would go to the effort to bring a couch or a refrigerator into the mountains and up a 4 wheel drive road just to destroy it is outside the bounds of logical thinking.
    Pick up your shit..............and no that is not me shooting but it is my Jeep

    Looks like many of the public areas I've been to. We're our own worst enemy sometimes.

    I've asked folks to pack out what they pack in, but you'd think I was asking them to mow the national forest.

    That is called dumping. Why would anyone go through the trouble of taking a couch somewhere to shoot it? That is some scumbag dumping his trash and leaving.

    I think that’s the WORST I’ve ever seen L/H! I no longer go there simply for that reason, I’m surprised it’s even open to shooting still.

    My usual spot isn't quite that bad but the same dumbasses are at work

    I haul out a good size garbage bag every time I go but it is a losing battle

    They are just making things easy for the antigun NFS to shut it down

    I always try to pick up my trash, including all of the spent cartridges I can find (aside from the indoor, they clean them up every night).

    I may not get everything, but if that range had 75% less garbage than it does now, it'd look a lot better wouldn't it.

    Sadly I know the exact spot you posted. I used to have to shoot there. I too get disgusted at the crap left behind.

    The shooters that do that are only adding fuel to the Boulder, CO US Forestry Service that wants to shut down shooting in the enter Roosevelt National Forest.

    Would it be possible to get a dumpster company to donate a dumpster for a day; then organize a clean up day? It might not last forever, but it could be good PR with the forest service seeing folks take an active interest in keeping it open.

    That's a good idea, if you could organize it through a local club or something, even better. Off-road guys do it for trails all the time, helps with PR and keeping the greenies from shutting down their hobby...
