Default 1000 yard ranges

Can anyone tell me where all the 1000 yd ranges are in Alta or Sask. My usual spot has become infested with farmers and being unable to acquire a repellent I feel it best to avoid the area until the infestation moves away. I think that farming thing is contagious and I don't want to catch it again. For now I need to do a days worth of practice and don't mind a little drive as I should be prepared before my sheep hunt.
Don't worry I won't shoot a sheep at 1000 yds but it sure is nice to know that I can.

We must remember that there is a place on this earth for all gods creatures, right next to the mashed potatoes.

My personal range extends to 3000 PLUS. Too bad it is infested with a farmer, with an attitude problem toward city some city folks.

Guys....he's kidding.....and I think he's an ex-farmer. Besides could be worse....I've seen good farmland infested by "there are no rules when you live in the country" acrege's.

Default 1000 yard Ranges

First off I must apologize to MagnumMan for the name the screw up,you were here first and if its possible I have no issues with changing my handle.
Secondly and no less important, technically I still am a farmer in forced retirement and that infestation is my brothers on several quarters of my land doing hay and my comments primarly focoused at them were in no way intended to affend anyone else and if they have I do also apologize.
Thirdly, since my brother has said definatly not to placing a target atop the baler and I shoot at it while he drives around, I still require a safe long range shooting facility, would it help if I said please....
