This ends the McNabs Island adventure.
I found this site as I got lost when trying to find another place, as lost as you can be on an island. I had to phone to tell the boat I would not be back on time for the pickup, called later and he came.
Part of a old rifle target shooting range used between the 1880s and 1920s., this equipment was used to raise and lower targets up targets, now it is sinking into water.
At the south end of McNabs Island, near Fort McNab, two 800-yard rifle ranges were constructed, one for use by sailors and the other by soldiers who regularly camped on the island.
