Thank you to our generous donors who provided the following to make this event possible:
- Wyoming Wild Sheep Foundation (Saturday steak dinner)
- Sweetwater River Conservancy at Pathfinder Ranches (portable toilets, lunches, and grill)
- Water for Wildlife (Saturday breakfast)
- Carl Asbell (Fremont Distributing ) for Saturday night drinks
Type of work to expect:
After hiking 3+ miles to the sites, installing the guzzlers will involve a lot of manual labor including:
- Digging holes in very rocky soil for the water tanks to sit in
- Moving rocks and soil to create relatively smooth surfaces for the water-collecting aprons
- Moving rocks and other debris to stabilize and camouflage the aprons after installation
- Installing trail cameras at each guzzler
Terrain and safety notes:
- The terrain will be steep and rocky and rattlesnakes may be present. Some sites are located in the burned timber area from the 2012 fire.
- It will likely be too windy at base camp for campfires.
