The Black Rock Desert-High Rock Canyon Emigrant Trails National Conservation Area may look barren and dry, but thousands of springs dot the landscape, providing water sources for bighorn sheep, pronghorn, mule deer, and other Nevada wildlife. Learn how to spot springs, and gather valuable information about water quality for the Bureau of Land Management as a Citizen Spring Investigator! Stay tuned for training details, coming later this month!
