South Shooting Site :(

[hip55]

I drove down from Denver and worked out my AR, Hi Power, & 10-22.

I found that the battery had died on the MKII sight so I put it away as I didn't have a spare.

So I was about to pack up and a truck pulls up with some shooters, and I introduce myself to Tim K & his friend. After we talked a bit I tell Tim I didn't get to to shoot the MK II due to the battery and he tells me he has a spare- sweet!

So I installed the battery and plinked off 20 rounds - thanks Tim!

Can't someone edit the thread title? Every time this thread is upped I think another sweet shooting site has been closed

I took my cousin down there when he visited last month and he had a great time.

Yeah +1, I just came in here in a giant panic to make sure it wasn't off limits, phew!

I started this thread to let everyone know about the poor conditions of the South Site when I went up there after Rampart Range was closed. Since the closing of Rampart the site is getting more like a landfill. Sadly it is mostly the members of CO AR-15 that has taken care of the removal of trash. Thank you to everyone who has helped there just like anywhere else members shoot and clean for oter people to keep our public ranges open.

If you like I could start a thread titled:

I was up there today with my kids and we left with a lot more than we came with.

Not too much in the area I was shooting from.

I was there today.

The place was pristine... no trash... casings... left over targets... looked killer!

The drive over CO67 in my all wheel drive EVO X, which has new Eagle GT's, Hawk HPS Brake Pads and 2 degrees of neg camber was AWESOME! CO67 is so much fun to drift on. Ask ERIN MT... At one point he reached over and tightened his belts!

Also, we was blown away by the SCAR & AR's just lying in the back seat all exposed. Guess that's a no no in KALIFORNIA!

My two sons and I were there yesterday, and the spot we were at did have a little trash when we got there, but not terrible. We picked up what we could (a couple cans, some PVC piping, and target pieces), but there was still a pallet and what looked to be some moulding remnants left that we didn't have room for. Overall, we had a great time and the other people that were there seemed to take extra time to clean up anything that was left by others before they got there as well.

My pleasure. You left just in time. We each got in 10 rounds before the lightning scared us off the hill. By the time we got loaded back up the sky was in full fireworks mode. Cool to watch, but not conducive to good shooting.
