Where to shoot in Northern Idaho

Going to visit. Looking for rifle range near Rathdrum/Spirit Lake. Hoping to shoot this Wednesday or Thursday. Greatly appreciate any suggestions on finding a range.

Guys have been shooting in the silver valley near cataldo if the above are a bust too. My buddy has been hitting it weekly.

I couldn’t get through on the phone today. I’ll try again tomorrow. One website showed current conditions posted like 2021. So I figure they are out

Thanks
This is the current conditions posted on their site that led me to believe they are non operational right now. Couldn’t get thru on the the phone

RANGE CONDITIONS​

As of 4/24/2021 entry/exit from the range is good for all types of vehicles. The new paving is holding up well. Please still drive slowly when entering and leaving the range. Thank you!

Their calendar has events posted on weekends through this month. If they were shut down I'm sure they'd clearly post a message on the site.

Fernan Range returned my call about 2 minutes after I left a message today!!!! Sounds like a great place to shoot and nice people. Members shoot year round 7/365. General public is only in the summertime. I’d join if i lived in their zip code.
