Is this the one located northwest of Grand Ronde, north of highway 22, that you get to using NFSR 2282 from the east or 2334 (little hebo rd) from the west?
If it is I will be pissed, I having been going up there for 18 yrs now.

Its a paved road right? and you pass a sign that says your entering Indian land or w/e. you take a right to go there right?

Well I'm not sure what you are trying to explain so let me put it this way; it is about 5 miles up a logging road off of the paved road (highway 22). And yes, the logging road is a right turn off the paved highway (if you're heading west), and yes, the logging road is just past the sign the says Entering Siuslaw National Forest. And when you get up there, there is a gravel pit on each side of the road, one deeper and lower than road level and one at road level.

Not quite 5 miles but thats the place the lower quarry fills up with water right?

It really bothets me that so many places are being closed for that very reason.
I cant seem to go anywhere without ending up with a pickup load of other peoples junk.
I hate leaving a spot messed up.
First cause it will be worse next time and second I wouldnt want anyone thinking its my crap cause I was the last one there.
Ive never shot at that pit, but do hunt around there from time to time.
Usef to be grwat hunting down there, but with the level of poaching the re the numbers are really down.

It is sad, but responsible people have been paying for the ef-ups of irresponsible people for a long time. When dealing with the public, no good deed goes unpunished.

Basturds.
Many good times up there with my kids over the last 15 yrs or so. We always hauled some asshat's trash out of there in an attempt to prevent just this thing from happening.

Are there any shooting clubs/ranges in this area?
