A local who's property butts up against the public land has offered to aid in keeping the area maintained. As soon as the mitigation finishes it will reopen to the public, including shooters. The timeline as of now is yet unknown, but expected to be until 2012.
Who'd you hear this from? I called the ranger station for the area directly and they said it was still open, as long you walk into the site, as the roads are closed. The forest service work was done over the winter from what I saw from previous notices, so I'm just wondering where you got the info. If it was from the Rangers, I'd be disappointed as they told me something completely different.
