Dry in Nevada this year. But deer to be found

[mevertsen]

My wife daughter and I went to the hills west of the house this morning. Left the house at 9, back by noon.

Saw a doe and fawn, lone doe, and 2 bucks and 2 does I suspect were last years fawns in one group.

Tied very close to water. Places that have had small meadows are very dry. Little spring creeks, no snow pack (though where I plan to hunt top is 8000 feet or so.

Toad tadpoles in the creek.

Good day.

Which general part of the state are yall? Been watching most of these systems forming over CO/UT/WY but doesn't seem like any early summer rains for most of NV

No. Dry dry.

Central Nevada

Maybe some storms building for this afternoon?

We'll see if we get any rain.

Thanks for posting. I will be out that way in September for the muzzie hunt. It will be my first time in Nevada. I have a crazy Fall with a number of tags that were not expected that came through so there won't be any on the ground scouting happening prior to the hunt, but I'm really excited about getting out there. Keep posting those pics as you get them!

Entire SW is dry. Praying for rain and good monsoons. We need it badly.

Its raining now. First we've had in a good while.

We certainly do need the rain. But what we don't need is the dry lightning that sometimes comes with these thunderstorms.
There is a new batch of small fires along US 93 nears Pioche and over in unit 231 near Parsnip peak that came the storms yesterday.
