I read this on a FB page. (Of course, finding anything on the WMAT web page is pointless) "The White Mountain Apache reservation is going into stage 2 fire restrictions starting on Thursday, June 10th. This means that they are closing all of their remote waters. This includes Christmas Tree Lake, Reservation and everything past it, including Drift Fence, Pacheta and all the small streams back there. It is my understanding that Hawley, Earl Park, Big Bear/ Little Bear, Bog Tank, Horseshoe, A1, Sunrise, Upper Log, Lower Log and Ditchcamp will remain open. This information is just coming out and there could be more closures than what is listed. We will know more in the next day or two."

What type of target face do you prefer for checking handloads and sighting in? I've come like the Thompson Targets with the points toward the center as the crosshairs show well against the white background and the points help center them. Bullet holes show better than if in a black part of a face. https://www.thompsontarget.com/rifle-scope-sight-in-ultra-bright-shooting-target-combo-pack-100-targets/

Since they do not accept Visa or MC, I'd be leery. Tried to find them on BBB for Austin. No luck. (Saw that Cabelas has an F rating though.)

I used to go backpacking in Glacier and Yellowstone just to flyfish many years ago. Big Lake was nice when the average rainbow was 15". I have not flyfished much in recent years.

If you happen to be in Pinetop over this Memorial Day weekend, feel welcome to stop in and say hello. It would be nice to put some faces with names. I will be in my booth of landscape photography at the art show being held Fri-Sun at The Gathering Place across from Pinetop Lakes Country Club on Buck Springs Road. My booth is on the concrete basketball court on the east end of the show grounds. Bull is from GCNP 7/2015 Doug

Thanks Chef for stopping in. It has been too long since Amanda's elk hunt. Wish we had more time to talk.

I figured I would try the Zions and see what the hoopla is about. A pair was delivered in the mailbox today. Edit to add that it was nice to see these are more of a regular fit and not skinny jeans tight through the legs and seat. Fabric weight is light, so seems they would be good for early season or hiking. The stretch material is 2-way horizontal, not vertical.

Did the unicorn follow you home?

Smoking - unless in an enclosed vehicle or building, a developed recreation site, or while stopped in an area at least three (3) feet in diameter that is barren or cleared of all flammable material. Discharging a firearm, air rifle, or gas gun. An emergency situation exists due to the high levels of continuous fine fuel loading, fire danger indices, and extreme weather conditions. This has created an environment in which ignitions from human-caused activities can occur at a much higher rate than normal.

Are you a winner Standman?

Do you have any suggestions as to where to securely store my 5x8 cargo trailer in the Pinetop/Showlow area this summer so I do not have to haul it back to Flagstaff each week after art shows in Pinetop? I will be doing art shows almost every weekend Memorial Day though August.

re this weekends scouting trip, it appears that the roads into 6B are still closed. The 535 and 533 were still locked when I drove past this past weekend. https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/coconino/alerts-notices/?cid=stelprdb5339811
