So stoked that Clover drew the statewide Governor's permit for quail and grouse😉 What a fall she will have as a 2 year old GWP. Looks like no deer or sheep permit for me this year.

https://myemail.constantcontact.com/NEWS-RELEASE--Full-closure-of-Coconino-NF-begins-Wednesday.html?soid=1132418723099&aid=22zf3vS_gOk Full closure of Coconino NF begins Wednesday FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., June 21, 2021 — Due to fire danger, dry conditions, and persistent wildfire activity during a time when firefighting resources are sparse, the entirety of Coconino National Forest will close for public safety, beginning Wednesday (June 23) at 8 a.m. A full forest closure means that the public is prohibited from entering any part of Coconino National Forest at any time. Only those with private inholdings will be allowed access to their property, as well as personnel providing utility support where necessary, and firefighters performing their duties. Forest Service personnel will attempt to reach as many people as possible to begin vacating campsites and informing individuals who are camping in the forest currently. Campers and visitors to the national forest should vacate their campsites before the closure begins, and the public should cancel any plans for visiting the Coconino National Forest for the next several weeks. Though parts of the national forest may receive rain from sporadic storms over the next couple of weeks, this closure will not be rescinded until sufficient precipitation is received to adequately reduce the risk of wildfire, and hot, dry weather conditions are no longer forecast to continue. In short, this closure will continue until conditions are such that the closure can be lifted. Work on thinning and other forest and watershed restoration projects will cease. Partner agencies, organizations, concessionaires, outfitters, permit holders, and contractors, are all prohibited from entering the national forest. Violating closures and fire restrictions is a violation that carries a mandatory appearance in federal court, punishable as a Class B misdemeanor with a fine of up to $5,000 for an individual or $10,000 for an organization, or up to six months in prison, or both.

Coconino NF to fully CLOSE Wednesday 6/23/2021
Red Rabbit replied to Red Rabbit's topic in The Campfire
Parts of Tonto will close starting Friday https://www.facebook.com/TontoNationalForest/posts/1213249789095765 The #TontoNF will be implementing a Stage 3 Forest Closure on Friday, June 25, 2021 due to extreme fire danger. Some lakes, roads and recreation areas will remain accessible. The official Stage 3 Forest Closure order will be released tomorrow afternoon with a closure map with details of restricted and accessible areas. -
gunsmith, one radar site shows a small tanker and two cropdusters working around Casner. I sure hope it does not crest out to the east.
-
gunsmith, thanks, but i posted a link to that map 2 hours ago. It shows the fire last night down in the canyon, but not coming out of the canyon into 6b as adicted mentioned. I was wondering if he had any updated/current info/pics to that regard.

I read on another site that someone said there was a meeting this morning and the plan was to close the A-S this Friday. I have not see any official notice. -
Do you have any info or pics from this morning?

Here is a link to an IR map of the Rafael Fire as of this morning 6/22/2021 https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/map/7567/1/113576?fbclid=IwAR1whm5VBB_0yIar0aC_3ZoGoAh-TXcv2zg5JR7pUj4aR4qAj39ZFyr8XLk

Just got the "set" notice here in Kachina Village south of Flagstaff. The Rafael fire made a 12 mile run yesterday from north of Perkinsvilleto junction of Tule and Sycamore canyons. 20,000 acres was last info and no map updates today

A lot may depend on snow. I would look for canyons and draws where the bulls would be hiding. Saying what unit may get you a few PMs of more specifics.

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.
