I joined this forum just to set you straight on this. The class C shotgun only range in the Salt Fork Wildlife area is NOT "simply a self serve range that the state allows the public to use." It is a State facility, but as a class C range is "simply" *unsupervised*.. It's right there on the ODNR website for all to see, a mere 30 seconds of research.. "Salt Fork Wildlife Area Guernsey Shotgun C (740) 489-5021"
Hunters and fishermen seem to be just about the worst when it comes to packing out their trash, it's been my sincere displeasure to deal with this problem from so called "sportmen" at campgrounds around the state. Clean up your mess, you made it, CLEAN IT UP.

Yes, there are a lot of shells laying on the ground. I assume that it's cleaned up every so often. Apparently not enough for you. It should also be mentioned that the road it's on is almost exclusively traveled by people hunting back there. It's hardly a State Route, or even a County road. Perhaps things are worse than they use to be, though this close to gun season it's not all that surprising. It will be a mad house this coming weekend.
This really belongs in the Midwest section. Not sure this has anything to do with "Wildlife Management".
