Hey I recognize that map! Here's the home page where the map is:
https://www.trashnoland.org/

The idea of that map is to help shooters find a spot near your home area and encourage them to keep it clean so we don't loose it. I try to add new spots from time to time, but I try not to post someone's secret honey hole. So, they're mostly well know spots that get a lot of use (means we gotta keep up with cleaning up!).

Thanks Bruce,
Bill

Much appreciated, Bill! I checked it out and came back with some trash too. Wish more people would pick up after themselves.

I'm thinkin I'll head up tomorrow and check condition of some spots. I never can simply drive through without picking up trash that make us look bad. Besides, I wanna see how my new 44 Special shoots. It's the Bulldog 2.5" barrel. I got some Special rounds and some 44 Russian rounds. Wanna feel the difference, if any.

Most definitely. We must take care of the land we use. Next time, I'll bring a garden rake with me.

Rakes work good for the shotgun hulls. Then a releasing magnet really helps. Also a trash picker helps save the back from bending over so much. I also use a rolling magnet, dump onto a tarp, and funnel the hulls into the trash bag.

A guy brought a backpack blower to one of our cleanups once, and blew a whole bunch of trash into a pile! Made it easier to clean up.

If you see a Silver Silverado with the Trash No Land signs on it, stop and say hey!

I think I'm off tomorrow.

I think I'm off tomorrow.

If you're up there, I'll start out down at the bottom on the 412th/Skamania Mines Rd about 10 Am. DNR recently put up some large blocks on 5 of those those lower shooting spots. They're trying to curb the noise for the neighbors in that area.

I agree with 3 of them to be shut down, but 1 of them was perfectly fine and is a good place to shoot. The other spot was so-so, and only good if you kept your targets to the right in front of the dirt backstop, but they closed that too. I talked with them and they agreed to leave one spot open, but only specific hours from 9 AM to 3 PM, or something like that. I want to see if they have put up the signs yet. They do have the big dirt/stumps blocking the lane, but you can climb over that and see the good lane to shoot at.

Note: I'll edit the map, on TNL's website, to reflect the shooting hours as soon as the signs are posted. For now, I have it marked as 'Closed'.

I went up Sunday and they had signs at the last shooting spot, the way out to washougal road, 9-6 with a giant dirt mount next to the road

Did some blasting, 50 degrees and no wind, had to take the second to highest spot as it was fairly busy for a Thursday. Get out and SHOOT.

Yes, nice day up there today. I had a late start but got to see conditions and fire off that 44 Special. Also met some shooters who shared an AR15.

Merry Christmas!

I updated the shooting map on TNL's website. Made a post about those spots that are now closed at the lower end of the Yacolt Burn. It's in the thread "Info for shooting on Public Lands" on page 47 at post #925.
