Elkaddict Report post Posted July 15, 2013 Put a camera out Saturday morning and was a little worried that the tank could dry up anytime. Put a chunk of salt a few feet from the mud. (Note the day is one day off on the cam, time is right) I was thinking I might have to move the salt since we had a good rain that afternoon, so went to check it this morning. What a difference! Need to go check a few more "dry" waterholes and see what they look like. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonecollector777 Report post Posted July 15, 2013 The salt was completely for agricultural purposes and the cattle in the area right? kidding.. that's crazy how much water came down in just a couple of days! That should last the rest of the summer I would think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elkaddict Report post Posted July 15, 2013 We had 1.4" Saturday afternoon at my place, I was watching the radar and hoping this waterhole was catching some of it. It did. Salt was put there specifically for the elk! ; ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
