North Fork Wolf Creek Recreational Shooting Lanes

Unfortunately the gate would get ripped down unless it is huge. Happens down here a lot and sold for scrap and I think the issues up there are far greater than in this area.

Yeah, a decent diesel pickup and a chain can do alot of damage.

Even a gate that was locked starting 1/2 hour after dark would help, IF it could be made strong enough, but I can't see ODF sending anyone out to lock and unlock it everyday.

I do have a post hole digger for 4 inch posts. It is a semi manual one. It digs a hole with my assistance where Tracy wants me to put one for her rasberry posts. I can bring it if needed.

I have one of those too! I'll bring it but hope we don't need it.

Also, we'll need more trailer space than yours has, but might need it if we don't get a bigger one. Besides, that's kind of a long haul from Albany with a heavy trailer!

 

[Rem700..300]

The trailer pulls easy so no problem. Going fishing at Hagg lake on the way home.

About the cleanup on May 20th...
Is anyone up for a camp out on Friday night?

I might be inclined to camp out the night before, especially if it's a clear night, I want to do some astrophotography before the workshop in mid June.

Don't set camp down range.

I'm afraid Bryan and I will never hear the end of it!

You know? If you want me to quit I will? It gives me a good chuckle, and also helps me deal with dumb stuff I've done in the past. And it's a great thing how you started TrashNoLand about that time. Look what THAT has grown into!

I get a great chuckle out of it too, along with a shake of the head in disbelief!

Thanks Mike!

Still brings a smile to my face. But more of a PTSD smile over a happy smile. As in if I didn't laugh I'd probably cry. That was a scary night down in that pit. Browns camp after dark is a while different animal!?!?

COOL! I have to chuckle, and in a way, it feel like, it gets a little funnier every year.

Wolf Creek Shooting Lanes Cleanup May 20, 2023
​

The event is posted on the TNL Website.

​

 

[Cogs]

ODF is currently building a new Kiosk for Lane 4 and we will be installing it at the May 20th event.

However, we are relocating the kiosk to a place where, we hope, they won't get shot up as easily or often as before (relocating Lane 3 kiosk also). Let's hope it works!

TNL purchased all new signage for all 4 lanes and we'll replace those as needed. ODF is covering the cost of trash disposal, but TNL is providing the trailer to haul it (trailer volunteered by @drewp (he may be available to haul it, but if not we'll need someone with a 3/4 pickup to tow to-n-from). We need an auger, for drilling the kiosk post holes, and if one isn't volunteered we'll need to rent that as well. Farmers Insurance-Beaverton has donated the food cost for our lunch and the owner, @rhollister71 , is going to grill it up for us!

We are anticipating a good turnout for this event, so come join us and help do some good!

All four shooting lanes will be closed from sunrise to 1 PM.

Can the holes be dug by hand. I have several post hole diggers available

Are those diggers young and strong? I dig it! But I just don't dig anymore.

Lanes 1, 2, and 3 looked decent today. Didn't get a look at lane . Some small pieces of trash but nothing horrible. Hauled out 2 bags of mostly cardboard targets and plastic bottles with me. It definitely looks much cleaner than some of the times I've been there in the past. The main road coming in off Highway 26 is pretty beat up though, lots of potholes.
