Shooting areas in Lakeview area

[Chris McMullen]

Hi all, I'm taking the family down to the Lakeview area to camp and do some rock hounding. Was looking to get some plinking in as well. Are there any open-to-the-public areas or rock pits that you know of?

Thanks in advance.

Huge area with lots and lots of open BLM...whereabouts will you be?

There is a gravel pit on Hogback about halfway between 395 and Plush, but you may find people camping/riding ATVs there. Also a DOT pit just north of Christmas Valley road...if you go all the way to the back and up, there is a good spot to plink.

I don't know the area anymore than just now googling Lakeview and looking around on the map.

Here's this? Google Maps

And I would think that anywhere on that map that is BLM, or any public land, you could find a safe place with a good backstop and do some plinking. You should check the county website as there may be a target shooting ban in effect because of fire danger.
