It's a weekend trip. Leave Friday afternoon spend the night in a hotel in Valpo, go to the range Saturday. After range time head back, spend the night in Valpo again and get home Sunday.

UNRELATED TO COLD:

What are some good outdoor ranges in NWI? pistol/carbine/ar friendly, not just shotgun skeet shooting.

I did some searching, and really haven't found much that didn't appear Shotgun only

Let me know if you want to visit Michigan City Rifle Club as my guest. They have both indoor & outdoor range.

Willow Slough is about half hour south of my house in Cedar Lake, down US 41. Others will be along to point you to other, maybe closer, options.

I've been to Willow Slough on my bike, but never realized there was anything other than fishing there.

IF I owned a golf cart (which won't happen) It would have a Harley motor and trans in it, and I'd get busted immediately, but It'd take me where I needed haha
