Close of a Chapter

The cameras are back from the Arrastra Mountain Wilderness, part of Game and Fish Unit 16A. For this survey, we had no luck capturing photos of Big Horn Sheep; yet we did capture a number of burrows, javelina, skunk, squirrel, and a mountain lion--Check it out!

Big Horn Sheep Workshop

As a way to get more understanding of the issues about Big Horn Sheep management out to the public, Arizona Game and Fish holds a Big Horn Sheep Workshop. The workshop includes a Friday education session and a Saturday boat tour from Willow Beach to the Hoover Dam. We saw around 60 sheep, 2 bald eagles, a few hot springs, waterfalls, the fish hatchery, and the Black Mountains.
Check out some of the pictures!
