I've got a itchy trigger finger
Edit: That little up hill at the gate to the lanes will be a challenge for the small car folks. It's "all" pot holed up, and I do mean all.
Hi All,
New gun owner here. I've yet to shoot my rifle and I'm looking for a nice family friendly place to shoot out doors.
My first day out would consist of just shooting the rifle but also hopefully zeroing my red dot sight.
1. Is this place family friendly? Is it safe?
2. Should I bring my own targets and what kind are recommended?
3. What lane is ideal for zeroing a rifle at 50 yards?
4. What day of the week is least busy?
5. Anything else a newbie should know in general and/or anything specific to this outdoor shooting area?

Is it worse than normal I almost ripped a muffler off my Malibu the first time I went up!I will second that. I was up there last night in the rain to Test fire a new AR build and got a little hung up in my VW Rabbit. Second attempt was good just had to pick the right line. I'll bring a rake and shovel next time.
I would say yes. I've been up 3 times in the last 2 months and this most recent was by far the worst. First 2 times I hardly slowed down, Thursday I crawled, got hung up, backed to the bottom planned a line and made it up in first gear with a couple scrapes. It's only the initial turn up the hill and the 15-20 yards past the gate, after that no problems.Is it worse than normal I almost ripped a muffler off my Malibu the first time I went up!
Hey guys, drove there today.
Yes the gate is open.
Yes the entry gravel road is in bad shape. A lot of pot holes. Looks like some truck spun with 2 wheel drive and dug holes when the wheels hop.
I drove 4 miles past the range, on the N ford wolf creek rd. Now there is a sign "target shooting prohibited due to fire and safety hazard" on those shooting spots along the road. WTF?
I know that ODF and @Cogs where up on N. Fork Wolf Creek Rd in the Spring putting up signs saying those exact words at location just off the road that are in fact unsafe places to shoot. I don't think any additional signs went up specific to the recent fire hazards and while it's possible somebody's moved the signs ODF put up, I suspect that the are still at prohibited locations that had been popular for target shooting.
Those spots have mountains behind them.
No danger for ricochet what so ever.
Fire danger. Well it is true for a week ago.
The upper 2 lanes are long enough for what you are doing the lenghts are clearly posted on the signs at each lane.Any recommendations for a good affordable target stand + targets for sighting in a rifle?
Also does anyone know the exact /close to exact lengths of the lanes in order to eyeball 50 yards for sighting in purposes?
