TIN CAMP - This is the Last One...

Cindy looked up classes and holy hell, the closest one to us is booked up for the year. Even the next closest one which it out in Fallon is booked up until the middle of June. Still, we decided to make an appointment for it and then go to Frey afterward LOLI’d kill or relocate the rattler and get some King Snakes or similar. Non-poisonous, eats rodents, as well as rattlesnakes.
Cats will kill everything including your birds.
I would also recommend ‘snake proofing’ Ripley. We did this for our most recent German shepherd and it worked great. Kept him and us from being bite- multiple times.
This is who we used but there should be something similar in your area.

Good reminder, something I need to do with my dog next time I'm in Utah.
Last year we were hiking on a trail, and she sniffed one out in some brush, I never saw it, but I heard it.
Luckily, I had her on the leash (long leash) but pulled her back fast, fast enough to surprise her ... she may have flown a little lol

Well that sucks. I had no idea there was a number requirement. I wonder if there is a way to address the cash crop side of it…like plant about 20 ears of corn.

Also, if you ever get bored, there's always one of these:Awesome! I think I'll be ordering one of them too
Otherwise, it looks like the rifle is available at my local Walmart, the bi-pod and ammo are both easy enough to get as well but I am having a hard time finding the same scope you have. There are other options available though and I may just have to get one of them.
Again, thanks for the info - definitely gonna need to get this thing going

Great views and soon dinner. lol
I have to say, there's something about spending time out in the mountains of Northern Nevada for about a week on end and WITHOUT any internet or cell service. When you're that removed from the real world, life seems to slow down and you feel a lot better about everything. Fortunately, that's what Cindy and I just got back from and even though all we did was work on the property, it's a bummer we couldn't stay longer. Anyway, I know it isn't much but here are a few shots from our recent trip to Tin Camp.
One of the things I love most about summer in Northern Nevada is that you almost always get storms rolling through some time during the day and they always provide epic sunsets.
While our main purpose on this trip was to clean up the cabins more and do some dump runs, it was hard not to notice just how much the main pasture had grown. And, while it really isn't necessary, giving it a mow was definitely on my to do list.
Also, the grasses around the pond had really exploded since our last visit and this was another thing we wanted to address.
Of course, all that could way for another day. Relaxing for a bit, having a drink and enjoying a cool evening with a BBQ was first on the list.
Pretty much every day we were here, there was some kind of cool storm that rolled in.
On one of our walks across the property, we came across this snake skin that was about 3' long heading into a hole.
After a lot of hard work, here's a shot of pasture after I got most of it mowed.
And here, you can see that we cut back most of the grasses along the edge of the pond.
Thanks to the much welcomed rain, we got a chance to see a beautiful rainbow at sunset.
Yet another epic morning on top of the hill near our main well.
More beautiful skies reflecting in the pond.
After more mowing in the pasture and chopping down some of the bigger brush.
I should note that I did all the mowing by hand, as in, using a big push string trimmer. While it got the job done, it took forever and was exhausting. That said, I've been giving this old riding mower that the previous owners left behind a harder look and I think the next time we come out, I'm going to get it running again.
Of course, if I could get this old beast running and with a bush hog, I'm sure I could get the job done faster LOL
Even though Ripley played really hard every day, every evening I had this face staring at me demanding that I play with her more.
On our morning walks, Cindy has been starting to collect whatever whole bottles that she comes across and this is the start of what she's found so far.
Hard to believe that we were so busy working and relaxing and enjoying the weather that we almost forgot to take a pic of us having fun.
I hope you enjoyed the pics

Awesome pictures. Looks like a great break from “civilization”.
Thanks! It's been hard to get myself to turn on the radio to listen to anything other than music. Certainly, haven't read or watched any news since being able to get online again. I feel so refreshed
