    rattle snake tanning

    I take it and place a toothpick at 90* about every 1" then roll it up and stick it in a pill bottle or jar with a mix of 5 parts glycerine to 1 part denatured alcohol and let it site for a few days. Take up less space then tacking it down. I then take it out wipe it off and roll it in an old t-shirt for a few more days to absorb the greasiness of the left over glycerine and then remove any fat that has hardend.

    water sources in 24b

    Save your money. I have that book and it only show a few in each unit. As a matter of fact when I bought it the woman at the front desk said if I didn't like it I could return it so I guess they get a bunch of them returned. Go get some maps, Tonto National Forest, Superstition Wilderness to name a few which you can get at Wide World Of Maps in Mesa or Phoenix of just go to the Forest Service Headquarters in Mesa or Phoenix (there are others throughout the state) and you can get them for le$$. Google Earth is also good to use but maps will save you a lot of gas money and get you in the general area. The maps will also show tanks and springs. Look in canyons for Cottonwood, Walnut, Ash and Sycamore trees. That is an indicator that water may be there, albeit seasonal.

    Horn growth

    One year I was in 32 and watched a doe get on her front knees and was eating something. When she left I hiked over there and she had been chewing on the exposed roots of a creosote that had been all dug up like Javelina will do.

    Another day another inch of rain on the rim

    Still pretty down here in the Valley. Tempe got a little overnight but Mesa has been seeing almost no rain.

    Tonto fire restrictions lifted?

    From the Tonto Website. http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/tonto/home/?cid=stelprdb5269295 "Fire Restrictions Fire restricitons on the Tonto National Forest were lifted July 11, 2014. Please do your part to reduce the number of human caused fires. Be Responsible With Your Campfire Do not build a campfire on a windy day. Do not leave your campfire unattended. Make sure your campfire is Out Cold before you leave. Drown the fire with water, stir the coals with a shovel and drown with water again. Use you hand to test for heat. Repeat the process if needed."

    Yellow ferret in the woods?

    I have seen a lot of weasels in the past couple weeks...all of them were two legged. I thought you boys down there ran them all out of town a while back.

    Yellow ferret in the woods?

    Agreed, I have seen them up near Long Lake and Drift Fence Lake. Both were a light brown almost Cinnamon in color.

    I've shot a few. That's a whole lot of horsepower.

    Monkey Wrenching near HappyJack

    Spoke with a guy whose brother ran over a couple out by Arlington a year or two ago.

    cards are being hit

    Check the regs it's in there. Probably in another week because I believe leftovers come out on the 28th.

    Monkey Wrenching near HappyJack

    If they just cut them to about 8" they could be pounded in with a small sledge hammer. No reason to dig them in the loose soil would just make em weaker and more prone to getting pulled out when you drive over them. Lotta wack jobs out there.

    Q's on river cats

    If you can catch some 4" Bluegills they make great catfish bait. Just free line them with a hook behind the dorsal fin. Check the regs but I think you can use live Goldfish for bait in the Colorado. You can get them cheap at Petco or Walmart.

    I read that Mexico just closed their waters to the taking of Blue Fin for the rest of 2014.

    AZ Salt Licks...Legal?

    It's good practice to re-read them every year. About as much fun as watching paint dry but things do change periodically.

    Help Importing Guns from Mexico

    I would call ATF and talk with them directly instead of getting it second hand from an FFL holder. Last thing you want is a visit at 4AM from the Feds. https://www.atf.gov/content/Contact-Us/Local-ATF-Office/Phoenix-Field-Division/Arizona-Field-Offices
