FISHING / LICENSE & gear
If you plan to fish, all boys ages 10-17 will need a Youth combination Hunt and Fish license ($5.00 good for 1 year). Under 10 do not require a license. Adults that desire to fish, be aware that they no longer do a trout stamp; instead, it is now a combo Hunt/fish license ($57.00 for 1 year / $15.00 per day). They can be purchased online at AZ Game and Fish, at most sporting goods stores, and Walmart sporting goods dept. The license must be in your possession (on your person) while fishing.
If you have a rod and reel bring them along. We will bring a few extra rods, for those who need one.
OTHER DETAILS
It is not necessary to buy a stove, coffee pot or Dutch oven just for this occasion.
The current weather forecast is 75/45F
Let Chris, Craig, Kyle, Kelly, Jim, or Gary know if anybody needs a ride and we can try to coordinate.
We will mark the turns on the road to Bear Canyon Lake once you get on the dirt road. Please make sure you have the route on your phone before you lose cell coverage! It will make it easier.
