Drove past the shooting locations on Salmonberry road today and they have lots of trash, again. Here are my observations...
In order of appearance from Hwy 26....
location #1:
Location #2:
Next up is a location I noticed in the past but this time I stopped for a closer look. Its located just past "location#2" shown above, its super small (maybe 15 yards) and tucked off the side of the road. The problem with this one is its not safe and should be officially closed.... it has no backstop. Take a look up close:
note: this is after I cleaned it up, it had shot up targets and trash. The log is where they place targets.
here is the same spot viewed from the road as your driving by....
here is a link to a map with a waypoint on its exact 45.764229,-123.413387 location: Hillmap - Backcountry Maps for the Obsessed (http://www.hillmap.com/m/ag1zfmhpbGxtYXAtaGRychULEghTYXZlZE1hcBiAgIDwnLKxCww)
the direction of shooting is on the south side of the road and as the map shows thats shooting downhill, I know its heavily forested but again there is no backstop and forest alone does not qualify.
Next up is location #3:
This one wasn't actually so bad except they left all those orange clay pigeons. I see the tree that was standing last I was here has been shot down.
I did not have the time to check out the rock quarry. I only picked up a small bag of trash but was too pressed for time to do a proper cleanup at any of the locations.
