Hi-Desert Rod and Gun Club

Hi-Desert Rod and Gun Club started in the mid-1970s when local shooters organized to reopen an abandoned Yucca Valley range. What began as a relaxed fishing and shooting club evolved into a fully incorporated non-profit that purchased the entire 40-acre property in 2007. Today they're one of the few public-access ranges in the region.
