The USFS road to Hawkins Peak is closed. In the Carson Iceberg Wilderness Area, found south of Highway 4, two pack stations provide services. The best map for the hunt area is that of the Toiyabe National Forest. The map can be obtained by visiting or calling the USFS office listed above. Daytime temperatures are usually mild but nighttime temperatures generally drop below freezing.
Thundershowers are common.
Hunters should always prepare for the possibility of a storm. There are several USFS campgrounds within the hunt zone and these are shown on the map of the Toiyabe National Forest. During fire season, special regulations may apply and it is best to contact the local USFS, BLM or CDF office for the latest information. Please do not camp at springs or watering holes. They can be critically important to wildlife.
