Looking for somewhere to shoot near Big Basin State Park

Ok, so I'm going camping with some friends in Big Basin at the end of this next month and am looking for some BLM land or other legal to shoot land in the area? I'll be coming over from Modesto. Also offroading in the area?

REGULATIONS

Firearms
You may NOT discharge a firearm or any other implement capable of taking human life, causing injury, or damaging property:

In or within 150 yards of a residence, building, campsite, developed recreation site, or occupied area,
Across or on a Forest Development road or a body of water adjacent thereto,
In any manner or place whereby any person or property is exposed to injury or damage as a result of such discharge. (36CFR 261.10d*).

Other than some simple regulations you need to follow and common sense, bring lots of ammo and have fun. Also try not to leave shell casings.
