Drought

[bobbyo]

I was wondering what the water hole situation is like. I know south of Tucson is in bad shape. Many tanks that are usually full at this time are bone dry. I am thinking of cutting the blue barrels in half to give the deer a drink. I hope the units east and north of Phoenix are in better shape. Maybe I will try for one of them great unit 22 October tags. Has anyone heard about forest closures or fire restrictions?

Tonto and Prescott NF are putting in restrictions. None here yet in the Coconino NF.

Tanks up here around Flag seem to be about 3/4 empty. Better put your "spot reserved" sign up in unit 22

It's real dry all around Tucson Tanks that I haven't ever seen dry are dry.....We need rain in a bad way and it prolly wont happen until monsoon season. God help the critters out there.
