Most areas of the Western Section of the BMGR are open for public travel. The only actual targets in this area are located west of the Tinajas Altas and Gila mountains. Simulated targets located to the east of the Tinajas Altas and Gila mountains are part of an electronic scoring system. Electronic training instruments sites are located at points throughout the range. Tampering with any of this equipment could lead to electrical shock.
Some instruments emit high energy radar beams.
Sufficient energy is generated by these radar transmitters to be hazardous. The energy from these transmitters is projected skywards. You will not be exposed to radar hazards if you remain outside of the warning sign perimeter and fences surrounding the emitters. Targeting lasers on board aircraft are used within the Eastern and Western range sections to designated ground targets selected for attack. These lasers are powerful enough to damage human eyesight if you look directly into the beam.
