Info for shooting on public lands...

[Cosimel]

I paid over 70 dollars for a pickup load at Washington county. They have gotten stupid pricing for individuals as they take the areas commercial waste. I pay taxes for a dump, a garbage bill and the honor of paying $70dollars a pickup load. Seems fair to me huh!

I'm sure this is at least part of why we're seeing all the domestic trash dumped at popular shooting sites like N. Wolf Creek.

Well the camper is now out of the rock quarry. At least 95 percent of it. Still need to rake a pile up and bag it. Heavy son of a gun. I want to thank my son for helping with the lifting. We did get to shoot the new to us Winchester 1200 12g. Thank you @devossc .

Need to rake this pile up and bag it and haul it out.

What did you do? Cut it up, dismantle? How did you get the camper out?

 

[Rem700..300]

The base of it(the part that sits in the bed) seperated from the other half of it when the "someone" drug it up the hill to burn. The rest was further up the quarry burned. We got all the big stuff and will need rake the pile up that you can see in the picture to haul it off. Basically just brute forced lifted it into the trailer. Threw everthing else on top then used the queen matress spring that was also burned on top to hold it all in. Then strapped it down.
All the garbage from last weekend was stuff from inside of the camper that fell out while it was being dragged up the hill.

Holy crap what an effort! Wow! I'm impressed!

I'm prepping a check, from Trash No Land, to cover your last couple of dump runs. Do you have a receipt for this one yet? I'll include it too.

 

[Rem700..300]

Not yet. Got home after dark tonight. It will be sometime this week before I get it to the dump. Just hold off until I get this one to the dump.
Didnt get pictures but we saw 15 to 20 deer on the way out.
Had a group of 4wheelers stop and say Thank you for doing this..
Happy that we got this done today. Been on my mind all week.

Here is another reminder of why we need to practice responsible target practice on public lands every time we go out...

Picked up another bag of shotgun shells from Pit 1 near Jones Creek WA this week.

 

[powermad]

I never got the shotgun hull thing.
Are they radioactive or something after they've been fired?

No but are full of water and likely some Coors Light Urine.

Thanks Jay!

If you're available, the big Pick Up The Burn event is happening April 30th in the Yacolt Burn. Should be a good time.

 

[Rem700..300]

Must have been busy up Neal Creek today. We got up there about 3pm today. Just started pouring on us. Picked up a bunch of shot up smaller appliances. Shotgun hulls by the box(really need a nickel deposit on those things), brass and some other trash.
The wife finally got to shoot her new AR. Thank you @HighLine firearms.

Nice!!! That's the way it should be done! Spend a few minuets picking up a little trash before you shoot and then have some fun!

So, where's that new AR? I don't see it. If she's holding it, it must be a pink camo color because it blends perfectly with her coat! It looks good on her! She picked up a nice ride!

 

[Rem700..300]

It is a Talo edition Ruger 556 with a Burris illuminated reticle scope. It is suppose to be Rose Gold but I would call it pink. She loved it as soon as she saw it. No scary black rifle and a 10 round mag.

Thanks Steve! You want to run camera? I'll be busy with the pressure washer cleaning graffiti all morning, but I was hoping to get some footage of other people doing their thing.

 

[Rem700..300]

We are planning on coming up also
