Join the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for a free Mule Deer Watch at the Nash Wash Wildlife Management Area. November is a great time to observe mule deer because of the rut, a period when deer are mating. During this time, deer are less concerned with human presence and are easier to watch and photograph.

What to expect:

• Participants will watch and learn about mule deer behavior!
• We will meet in a pullout north of I-70 at 3 p.m. We will then caravan 12 miles down a groomed dirt road to the Nash Wash WMA located near the southern tip of the South Book Cliffs. Four wheel drive will not be necessary.
• We will be watching the fields on the property as well as the surrounding hillsides for mule deer.
• If we’re lucky, we might also see turkeys, chukars or even a black bear.
• Cell coverage is limited in this area.

Be prepared:

• This event is limited to the first 75 people who register.
• Attendees should bring coats, boots, snacks, water, cameras and binoculars.
• There are no restrooms available on site.
• The nearest gas station is approximately 35 miles away in Thompson.
• This event is weather dependent; rain or snow can make the road impassable. Keep an eye on your email for event updates.
