Was driving by the other week on the way home from Buffalo Creek rifle range and notice a large sign posted. I did not have time to stop and a search of the forum did not answer the question so... Does anyone know what the sign says at the entrance to the south site?
Curious as well.
Been a bit since I was there but I believe it says something to the effect of watch your back stops and don't shoot towards others.
Hope this works!
Looks reasonable to me.
I don't see a problem with it. It did scare me the first time I pulled in and it was there
Sound advice. Probably be a few holes in it after awhile though.
Was up there today. Busy, but got there early and had fun. Ranger came by but just a friendly wave. Son and I brought home a large Hefty garden bag full of crap left by others, and of course our own targets!
Was there yesterday. Only a few people but I didn't see any rangers. The aea was nice and clean and I didn't see any mud and the trail was in good shape, especially after all the rain
I bring my own table, steel plates, and set up my own targets at this place. I think its great since you don't have rules like no drawing from concealment or holsters, no shooting while moving, no rapid fire(double taps are frowned upon as some ranges since they need 2 seconds between shots), no steel ammo, etc. As long as your safe, don't kill wildlife or trees, and don't start a forest fire, then your good to go. Very good place for practical fun shooting and competition practice. It's also the right price(free). Only thing is lack of facility but I can make do without fancy tables and target stands. If anyone ever wants to meet up them PM me. It's fun to shoot with others. One of my friends and I sometimes make up IDPA type stages and shoot them.
I've been heading there from time to time for some recoil therapy... and for exactly what you've mentioned.
This is where I made this vid [Coffee]

You should never own another AR. The AK fits your style so much better.
Sent from my teepee using smoke signals.

My son and I went up there last Thursday and had a great time. There were a lot of shotgun shells on the ground, and we picked up as much as we could. Overall, still in good shape and no crazy people.
Anyone care to help a clueless newb out? Where is the area being discussed here? I hadn't found any open shooting areas anywhere down this way. I've been to a few up around the fort collins area, and to a bunch of the indoor ranges, but would love to find a semi-close public shooting area.
It's on the top thread of this section. Click on the 'compiled list'Quote:

Headed up to the site and then for some overnight camping with the boy tomorrow.
Anyone been there lately?
Conditions such as how much snow on the ground etc., roads into etc.
What about the Lake George area? Snow level.
Camped last weekend @ Lake George and shot at south shooting area last weekend
Snow is only in the shadows. If the area gets sun, there is no snow. Temps are still pretty chilly at night. Night of the 15th it got down to 6 degrees and snowing.
Conditions at the south site are good. Still lots of shotgun hulls, and some other junk around. Not very muddy. The entrance road is better than it has been in the past. It had been 5 years since I was there last.
Thanks for the intel!
Shifting to Tuesday because it seems to be warmer then.
Trying to maximize our spring break week, guess I will take the boy and his friend to the movies today and finish packing the gear.
