Jazz Report post Posted July 10, 2018 Thinking about helping out a few weekends. Has anyone done this? Is my F250 6.0 diesel big enough for what they want me to haul into the backcountry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HNTNGUY Report post Posted July 10, 2018 I talked to Steve with AES last week. He said that they are waiting on 3 more water trailers that are being built before he needs any help. Said all the trailers they have are currently being used but would let me know when the new ones are complete. I’ll keep you posted when I hear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rthrbhntng Report post Posted July 10, 2018 Thank you to all the volunteers and those that want to help. 90% of where we are hauling in in Units 9-7W-7E-5BN, For the rest of this week we are taking a break during the rain storms. It is muddy in some of the areas. It does sound like Unit 9 did not get very much precipitation so we will be concentrating there probably the end of the week or this weekend. As far as the needs we have for the volunteers we do have a couple of 1000 gallon tank trailers - these will need a 3/4 or 1 ton 4WD truck to haul, for the 500 gallon we need at least a 1/2 ton 4WD. In each case the driver needs to have experience hauling trailers off road. It is very rocky and many of the roads are in disrepair so experience is good. The best thing to do if you want to help is go to this link and fill out the info...https://arizonaelksociety.org/water-for-wildlife-volunteer-form 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As mentioned above fill out the form listing what you're comfortable doing so they can contact you when the need arises. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mbiewer Report post Posted July 16, 2018 I just upgraded my truck as well, Sitting at the dealer, signing paper work I mentioned wanting to volunteer to help with this as well. I was quite surprised that my lady was super excited about wanting to get active with this as well. With turning 40, and a road trip (that we just got back from) now, I want to at least get my name on a list to help haul water also. Thanks for the post.
