    I was unaware that the shooting area was closed, that's upsetting, when did that happen?

    Some areas of the canyon are closed to shooting while much is still open. The spots with signage, I wouldn't be concerned about / it's perhaps a good thing (the spots are not large and are close to people / passers-by)

    Might first check with the Boulder Ranger District to see if the trail is even going to reopen this year.

    That music in the video is ridiculous. I dont see that area being open for a while. Probably not a bad thing, people abused that area. I am now concerned that all the idiots that used that area (mainly recreational shooting) will now find new locations to trash.

    Does anyone know if there is a club that maintains that trail system? Perhaps we can help to get it re-opened.

    I'd love to see it reopened soon. It's a great network of trails and really close to town.

    Looks like your right Bill, Trail ridge runners put up all of the signs and fencing several years ago according to their website. Anyone here part of that club? or know anyone in the club? I bet they are already planning something and I would be willing to lend a hand.
