    Default Need a place to shoot not too far from Thornton area.

    I had plans to go shooting today and all the places I had lined up fell through due to closures or my buddies not being able to head to their land. I'm looking for something about an hour or so away from north metro area.

    I know left hand is closed because of the fires and I'm not wanting to go all the way up to Pawnee. Any ideas???

    Does anybody know how bad it is down at cherry creel state park on a weekend day like today? Would we just be spending money to wait and not shoot?

    Im in the same boat as you. Now that the north site and left hand are closed, i hardly get to go shooting. Unfortunately Pawnee is the closest that I know of. Let me know if you find a place around here.

    There's also a couple of good areas just outside of Jamestown. It's all RNF land up there so as long as you play by the 150 yardd rule you're good to go.

    Cherry Creek is pretty dead on the weekdays except right before opening day.

    Heck.... give them a ring before you head out to make sure.
