Help us bring water to wildlife. Join NDOW and Nevada Bighorns Unlimited Reno to build a desert bighorn sheep 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 124 miles from Reno, NV. The build day will be June 6th.
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.
Children and family are encouraged to attend. There will be special programming for youth attendees. 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.
