Stone lodge Tum Tum Shooting Area
Was up there the other day. It sure could use a spring cleaning. It was a little better than most years but still a pig pen

Re: Stone lodge Tum Tum Shooting Area
Went up there Fathers day morning and there was a fire pit still smoldering around dry grass, must have been a party up there the night before. As soon as the wind picked up it flamed up, luckily I always take a gallon of drinking water and was able to put it out with that. I wish that they would realize that it is not the shooters that are causing the fires up there. Hate to see it closed for the season.
Edit: Friend of mine just sent me this. Looks like all DNR areas are closed to shooting.
FIRE DANGER RATING will move to "HIGH" Friday, July 7, at 12:01AM. High Temperatures already in the area will increase into the mid-90's to low 100's by this weekend with an extended trek in the 90's through next week and very low humidity readings.
This will also mean that any shooting on DNR properties will be prohibited.

I've driven past the Swenson range multiple times over the last few days and I didn't see any "no shooting" signs.

Yep, closed for the season.
Looks to have been a fire started there a few days back, but no shooting signs are up.

Re: Stone lodge Tum Tum Shooting Area
Corkscrew highway from Spokane north to Tum Tum i believe. its about 30 minutes out of spokane. maybe a tad bit more. on the right hand side of the road.
If its open and you go please pick up a little bit of trash. Its pretty nasty up there.
