A couple of nights ago we took an evening drive up to the reservoir. This is the reservoir that feeds the irrigation system for the ranch. I had not yet been there, although Brian was driving past it almost every day when he was working on snow fence up in the mountain allotment. The reservoir is part of the private (deeded) land on the ranch, but it is open to public access. There are no services there, but on weekends we sometimes see folks heading up the road with their rv's, boats, etc, to set up camp for a few days.
It is about a 30 minute drive on the dirt road ( a little bumpy and slow) to get the reservoir, and just a little ways past the sheep herders camp. When we pulled up, knuckle was super excited and headed straight for the water. I think it was the first "bath" she'd had in about 2 months, since all the canals on the ranch she gets in and out of aren't exactly clean water. We threw the tennis ball into the water for her to swim after until she was exhausted. It was a nice evening.
