Guzzlers: Kumiva Valley 1 (Western NV)

Get Connected Icon May 15, 2026 through May 17, 2026

Description

Help us bring water to wildlife. Join NDOW and Nevada Bighorns Unlimited Reno to build a pronghorn guzzler. Guzzlers provide a reliable water source for wildlife in dry landscapes, and this is a hands-on way to make a real difference. This guzzler is located approximately 150 miles from Reno, NV. The build day will be May 16th.

All tools and materials will be provided, but you are welcome to bring your own. Please bring plenty of water, food or snacks, and work gloves. Dress in layers since mornings can be cold and afternoons often warm up. Wear sturdy work or hiking boots and clothes you do not mind getting dirty.

An adult must accompany minors. Lunch and dinner will be provided by Nevada Bighorns Unlimited. Final basecamp details and guzzler wayfinding information will be sent out by Nevada Bighorns Unlimited closer to the event.

Please sign up for NBU's volunteer emails HERE  and scroll to the section labeled "Volunteers". As the date approaches, Nevada Bighorns Unlimited will email you to RSVP for the build. It is very important that you RSVP with NBU.
