IMPORTANT: The road coming into the property, 5600 W, cuts through multiple farms. Please be respectful of the owners and their families of those farms and REDUCE SPEED to 20-25 MPH.

Take your time and enjoy the beautiful range through your windshield to the north.
IMPORTANT: The road coming into the property, 5600 W, is well-maintained and surrounded by private ranches and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property. One or more cattle gates traversing the road may be closed, making the road appear closed. Anywhere there is a closed cattle gate, a minor side road around the gate will exist, crossing over a grated cattle guard. Drive over the grated cattle guard and keep going. Welcome to Southern Utah!

Weather
=========
You can gather information about Range weather at the following link:
https://www.windy.com/37.853/-113.785?37.357,-113.785,8
It is rare for the Brave Lizard Tactical team to reschedule an event due to weather conditions. Brave Lizard Tactical Instructors and RSOs will shoot and operate in all weather conditions except when the weather represents a safety hazard (e.g., lightning, excessively high winds, extreme cold, extreme heat). When Brave Lizard Tactical Instructors have judged that the weather will represent a safety hazard, you will receive a communication at this email address a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours in advance, relaying that data, including reschedules. You are responsible for monitoring this email address for possible weather-related communication, including event schedule changes.
The weather conditions at the Range are out of Brave Lizard Tactical's control and your control. Being prepared to operate in all weather conditions gives you an advantage over a threat actor who is not trained to operate in similar conditions. However, when you believe the weather conditions present an undue hardship, extremely unpleasant experience, or safety hazard for your abilities, please email events@bravelizard.com expressing that sentiment, and a Brave Lizard Tactical teammate will assist.
