The Location

Coordinate map

This Saturday's meetup is located on Bureau of Land Management land. It's about 500 feet south of Gas Line Road, an unpaved utility road. It's range land near the center of the triangle formed by US 50, US 50 Alternate, and US 95 Alternate.

Getting Around

While Nevadans are familiar with the basic rules of BLM lands, some things bear repeating.

• "The boundaries between grazing allotments are fenced as are the boundaries between public and private land. On higher volume roads there will be a "cattle-guard" on the road which is passable by vehicles but not by cattle. Lower volume roads will have a gate across the road. Always leave the gate in the same condition as you found it - if open leave it open, if closed make sure you close it behind you. Gates leading into private land will sometimes be locked or marked with a "No Trespassing" sign, in which case you should respect the property owner's wishes and find another way to get where you want to go."

Also, the meetup is about 3 miles northwest of Lahontan Reservoir. Admission is $5 per person, and would be a very good place to go after the meetup. See you at 4:00 PM. User:Paveman will bring the coffee.
