Basalt Public Shooting Range

About

The Basalt Public Shooting Range, operated by the Roaring Fork Valley Sportsman’s Association, is located at the Lake Christine State Wildlife Area near the original Basalt Public Library. The facility supports skeet, trap, and five-stand shotgun disciplines, along with dedicated areas for pistols and rifles. It is open to the public on weekends without requiring membership, though rates vary for members and non-members. The range is elevated above the town of Basalt and features acoustic enhancements for noise mitigation. Visitors should expect moderate difficulty conditions with an average visit duration of two hours. Parking is available, and pets are permitted. Safety protocols are enforced by certified range officers.
