I have heard about some signage restricting times, but never any details!

I saw the sign a week or 2 ago, after I got to ESC too early (forgot you have to wait until 11am to shoot there). Gave me time to run home and get the spotting scope I'd forgotten.

Probably because the neighborhood on the other side of the ridge (shooters left) complained. A friend of mine lives in there and its really damn loud.

I guess that just means we'll all have to get cans, that way we can shoot to our hearts content.

Fuck em. Bonus points for shooting at sunrise in full battle rattle, while spraying into old TV sets.

Fuck em. When are we going to get a "Like" button? Unfortunately some people are just "all about them" and can't see the need to coexist. They also don't realize that those who are annoyed by the noise are willing to accept the 9:00 AM restriction but if it's abused they'll just head for the lawmakers where they hold more power than the inconsiderate shooters. Then NOBODY will be able to shoot there. FWIW, that's one of the reasons the Sultan Pit was closed. No consideration was shown for those living nearby and shooting would continue into the wee hours of the morning, often with illegal fires built to keep the party goers warm. Another pit closed and the inconsiderate just moved on to trash another "about to be closed location".

Some positive points :) A little respect goes a long way.
Since I am new to the area, and looking for a place to shoot outdoors, can anyone send me info on exactly where the waddell creek shooting area is? I live in Bothell, and don't know of areas close to me...this may not be either.
thank you, Michael J.
