If DoC or council were ever to put up signs of guidelines for consideration to others they may as well mark the 50 metre and 100 metre distances and take more care of the placement of such signs to consider the safe firing zone behind them.

Signs and markers would still get ignored and probable get used for target practise too, I remember my first time up clements and my one and only time going up Te Iringa I vividly recall one of the guys I was hunting with coming out of the shithouse at the campsite at the track start saying "I have one concern, there is a bullet hole in the middle of the shithouse door and it is at eye level". Not even shithouses are safe from being shot at up there by people with itchy trigger fingers.
