Here in the last couple of days, I have been out with my son scouting, and doing some shooting. Getting ready for the many hunting seasons we have coming up. And I would like to say that I’m disgusted by the # of empty shot gun shells and empty cartridges that I v run across all along the roads. And I’m more disgusted by the trash that has been left behind. Targets, pop bottle’s, cans, and oil containers shot up and left in the woods, It is sad and it’s pitiful. Now I’m not saying it’s any of us on this board. But if it is some one hear doing these things get it figured out. And if you see some one shooting then leaving messes mention it to them, or if your afraid of a confritation pick it up your self. And report them to the authorities, with there license plate # and with a pic or two. , (Why so the authorities can see that its worth there time, and that we practice what we preach) the cheep cameras you can get these days can furnish the proof the cops need. They are easy to carry, I personally carry my camcorder play it for the cop and they got there proof and its done, they get a fine and educated.
I shoot in the great out doors, and not in a rang. I shoot in safe areas and practice in real life situations but I’m going to loose that privilege if We as hunters and shooters don’t start doing some thing about it. so spread the word, Your empties are trash too You packed them in take them Home and your targets too. Aix

I understand that large portions of the Sultan Basin are now closed to shooting and access for exactly the reasons you mention. Friends of mine go in to areas that are still open and pick up mountains of trash.

No need to take targets when going to
Sultan Basin a bunch of white trash has left their trash behind.

Lots of Weyerhaeuser property closed due to equipment being shot up. Some people's children never learn.

I used to wonder how a "few bad apples" could leave such a big mess. After observing people in the field, I concluded years ago that it's that 80% of cretins that are making the rest of us look bad. It's unfortunate, but it seems that the majority of humans behave that way.

Sincerely,

Salmo g.
