The shooting area is located in Sedalia off Highway 67 near the Teller and Douglas County line.
The range has a history of wildfires, with the United States Forest Service (USFS) reporting around five to 10 per year.
This caused several neighbors in the area to seek accountability from local leaders, asking them to close the range on high fire danger days.
According to the USFS, conditions at the public range will be re-evaluated on Friday.
