Boggs Mountain Range Clean Up, Middletown CA

[REDPATCHUSMC]

Howdy Friends!

** Calling all Lake / Mendo / Napa / Sonoma County shooters **

Looks like we need to pay some attention to another Northern California designated shooting area.

Boggs Mountain State Forest in Middletown, CA.


This range needs some help! A member ( HuDuVuDu) has been going up often making attempts at picking up. But honestly, the range is in need of ALLOT of help!

Correspondence with the rangers are attempting to lock in a date for maintenance on the range.

When we get a solid date, I'll post it!

Thanks REDPATCH. I am in contact with the people in charge. They said they will contact me after labor day. All the correspondence from them is very positive. They are thankful for the help. I have been going up about every other week and it has been getting worse. Last time I was up there someone had shot up an old Computer and CRT monitor. There are lots of shot up fire extinguisher / shaving cream cans / Satellite dishes.

As a side note there is no running water up there. So on the date we will all need to bring plenty of water.

I am heading up on Friday. I will take some pictures to post.

Thanks for any help we can get.

Fantastic Polo! Your the best!

I have a few friends that shoot up at Boggs.
Once you get a date set, I imagine I could probably have at least 4 people and a truck or two out there.

Bogg's Clean-up

Hi Folks,

I am the Support Section Leader for the California State Militia inthis area,
we will be training in Lake County on the 14th and 15th of Sept. and would be happy to perform some range maintenance. Contrary to what the media says, we are actually a "Civic Service Group".

I will be camping at Ridge Camp, so if any local Calguns members wish to meet with me, and give some input other than debris removal that would be welcome. We can also coordinate larger projects, as supervisors from the Lower Redwood Empire and Sacramento areas will be present.

Clint

Any further update on this?

[HuDuVuDu]

Sadly there has not been anymore updates. I have been contacted my the person in charge but not about the range clean up. They have contacted me about helping clean up the trails and other areas of the forest.

It sort of bugs me that they said they would contact me to schedule this event and they have not, but they have asked if "our group" would help clean up other areas.

I will contact them again.

On a side note: I have a camping trip planned for the weekend of 10/4-10/6 with some family and friends @ Bogg's if anyone would like to come out for the weekend or just out to the range for the day, I will be there.

[HuDuVuDu]

I just tried again to contact them and they are out of the office until the 17th. I will update more as I get more info.

ive always brought a few grocerybags of shotshells back but i havent been there all summer so i guess it has built up since i think i was the only person to pick up shotshells

the main problem is people shooting the trees its quite disgusting

furecent orange clay shards i hope there are not the appliances and computers like at bovine hill

[HuDuVuDu]

There have been some computers and CRT (glass) monitors shot up out there.

i guess we are in the timezone of crts back like in the late 90s early oughts with obsolite propane tanks(non opd,non-triangle valve) there was like 40 in a big heap at cow mountain

hopefully the crt days will come and go quickly another mess is compact disks

one would think the place should be riddled with vcr's but i guess they are just the right size to throw in the trash

I'm doing my part at cow mountain.. But I'm ready to go to Boggs ...
