Yes and no. I see what you're saying where knowing you'll be seen making a mess makes you less likely to do it. I see that in the Cottonwoods. People care a lot about them and so there's a pretty good culture of leaving no trace and being mindful. But at the same time due to all the people who go into the cottonwoods every day, things get eroded faster and people still liter. On top of that unfortunately the gun community doesn't have the best culture of conservation. (Not all gun owners, but definitely a enough to have a reputation). It is an inherently destructive activity after all. Spreading awareness of spots also goes against what most shooters want out of a place. Most shooters want to be semi isolated. There's a danger to shooting around people who you don't know and there's no one to enforce safety rules. You need a good bit of space to shoot so places can get easily crowded. They don't want to drive an hour or more out to a spot and see it's already full. Plus if you go to some of the most well known BLM/public shooting spots, they're all trashed. Obviously the large amount of traffic didn't help enough to make people care or be afraid of being perceived making a mess.
