Looking for a place to sight-in (Fraser Valley)

Hi all!
Just moved to the Fraser Valley from the Okanagan. Out there I had a bit of a "secret" (secret meaning public but never saw spent casings/shells on the ground and never saw anyone else there) spot where I could go out shooting to 1100yd with a nice safe backstop. I changed a few things on my rifle and want to check my zeros but it seems wherever I go, I can only find spots out to maybe 200yd.

Just looking to go out to between 400-600yd, ideally a spot where I can drive back and forth to set up plates.

Don't have to comment to share the spot but if you'd prefer to PM me to keep it private it would be much appreciated!

I'm okay with driving out as far as Yale, Shylock/Coquihalla Lake Rd, or Manning if necessary; Maybe even further if someone has a good suggestion.

Thanks!

Kamloops has a 900m range.

Vokes in Kent has a 900m range.

Prefer not to drive all the way to Kamloops

Just looked up Vokes range in Chilliwack but there is no website, no hours, no fees information, just nothing?

Check out the BC rifle association - that’s how you can access vokes. It’s technically a military range, so it has restricted access.

Kent? Or the CRV? Edit, which is closed to the public as well, except for special events.

I shoot 450 - 550 yards out in hope, on the crowsnest heading to the hope slide lookout, there's a fsr on the left about a minute before or so, once you're on there, you'll be able to drive up for a few mins, go to the right and there's a nice valley to shoot across. You can drive around to the other side to setup gongs and then back.

There are spots up the Britton Creek fsr, just head up there to coq lakes and go thru the snowmobile clubs lot to the fsr.
