If you are a member of the Colfax Gun Club and are inclined to get some shooting in while this nice weather continues...   be careful on the road leading to the entrance gate.  About 300 yards from the gate, the road has been washed out by all the runoff water.  There is a 1 foot wide by 1 foot deep trench across 90% of the road and it is hard to see due to all the water/mud.  One member in a car thought he might have messed up the front end of his vehicle.  I was going a little too fast and probably will need to adjust the alignment in my truck.

Be care on the road close to the range.

I was out there about  a month ago and it was in pretty bad shape.  Thanks for looking out.

Are there still a bunch of extra targets, ahem, I mean buses, parked down range?

Was out there Sunday. Said trench was full of water... Thankfully my Jeep is a brute and the impact didn't affect much. On the way out I went MUCH slower. The last few hundred feet of the road and the range itself are very sloppy...

If by Toyota you mean Nissan Frontier, yes he does.
He's no good, I'd avoid making contact with him if you see him there again.

Excessive masturbation can cause that... It's been a long winter.

Ugh. Hopefully jasper county fixes it because I just put new tires on my car and I can't afford any more repairs! Lol

Sorry, Joel.  It was kind of a spur of the moment trip to the range for me.  We do need to get out and do some shooting some time soon.

Does anyone know the name of the county road? I can't remember it. I know a couple people over at the engineer's office so I'll give them a call.

It is fixed now (well mostly anyway - probably as good as it gets this time of year).  

Resume normal driving.

Looking for the Colfax range(s) on Google Earth.
Anyone have the grid coordinate or street address for the range?

The club has a website now which shows the location on google maps. It's right on the front page, you should be able to figure out the rest.
