Does any one know if the fire ban in the high country effects recreational shooting on public lands?

I've got some friends coming in from Atlanta in a few weeks and I'd much rather take them up the wonderful trail head next to my home then to local range that's a half hour away.

Thanks a lot!

The answer to your question varies from county to county as well as there being varying restrictions throughout different parts of the various public lands.

As Ginsue said, it is county to county. you still have a few weeks to go where we can get some moisture.

whatever you do, just make sure you are careful and have a plan...like a fire extinguisher on hand at the ready. The shooting community doesn't need the blame for any fires.
