I'm wondering some places in the lowermainland where you can legally shoot out in the bush, or in a gravel pit or something. My brother just got a new gun so he's looking to try it out without having to drive 1 hour. i usually go out down chilliwak lake road but i'm looking for somewhere closer.

I live in surrey, i'm wondering if there is anything close by? abbotsford?

Thanks!

Pardon the huge picture but its so you can read it easily.

Best thing you can show police if they hassle you about where your shooting. CFC made it so it legally holds. :)

(If shooting at stave lake, the legal shooting area on the west side (florence) is past the 19km marker on the trail.

You'll see a big yellow gate saying Caretaker On Duy and a clearing both on your left. There on all good.

Any hunting license retailer should have them, they're called the "Fraser valley special area hunting map"

slamman beat me to the link!!

But if your heading in the bush to blast, please clean up after yourself.
Too many areas are being left a pig sty from recreational shooters, we risk looking access to them if things don't improve.

Enjoy!!
 
I cart out more than I bring in everytime no exceptions - It's unbelievable what people use for target practice, the one that makes me really mad are the $#!^heads that shoot up old car batteries?!. I just google earth'd Sylvester Road and you can actually see the junk from space.:eek:

The one and only time I took a trip out your way I did not know of this "East Hastings" place.

Let me tell you, I got out of there REAL quick.

The crackheads look scary but they are totally harmless. I work in gastown (2 block from Hastings and Main) and walk down the sketchy back alleys all the time, never had a problem.

I was up Sylvester a couple month ago with some friends. It is amazing the piles of hulls and garbage people leave behind.

Had a blast. Ended up taking out our garbage plus 3 bags full of others trash. I think to many people see it as there is already a pile of crap here so I don't have to clean up after myself.

How do you get to this spot up Sylvester Rd??? Is it just all the way up there. Can you miss it? I never been and would like a little info please
 
Awesome... Do you need a truck to get up there? And about how long does it take to get there after you get off lougheed?

Sorry for all the questions and thanks ahead.
