In Mt Hood Nat Forest. Story on the Trash No Land Blog.

''We started our tour at a dispersed shooting site, (where shooting should have never-ever taken place), and we had a long talk about what was wrong there, the effects it has on the forest, the bad look it gives to the recreational shooting sports and our efforts to improve stewardship. Throughout the day, target shooting was an ongoing topic.''

Just wondering. Why shooting should never-ever have taken place at this dispersed shooting site?

Judging by the pictures and knowing most dispersed shooting areas in Mt Hood, I'd say it was a bowling alley style shooting location.

IE, zero backstop, minus a wall of trees. Tree after tree being the next backstop or target holder.

Looks like a damn good meeting, and if anyone here could represent recreational shooters in a positive light among the darkness, it would be @Cogs

Thanks as always!

Yep. What Reno said. First, and for most, no legal backstop (no backstop at all!!!)

Glad you questioned it!
