Chucker Information and maps

[Mule man]

Getting a new dog soon and would like to chase some chuckars. I'm 70 but not in to bad of shape (yet). Would like to hunt out of Fallon Nevada for a change in scenery ,also my head for the Black Rock desert on my trip. Anyone have info on these areas and possibly were I can find GOOD maps. At my age I promise I won't be an impact on your area....lol

Look for water, then find rocky ridges around said water, go for a hike. Good luck!

I hear you on the hiking part, I have chased these birds since the 70's. Just like to see some new country

You might want to get a guzzler map from NDOW. They are quite helpful for getting to some areas to start looking and listening. I can't even count how many times we've found chukar and quail just by listening for them.
Good luck to you.

I do want to get a map, wish they would take a c-card

You can also get chukar counts from NDOW.

Been hearing they stay close to year round water sources, pretty hard to find that when it’s been so dry all summer.

I map all water sources I can find in onx before going out. Springs are one color and guzzlers (yes, they're all on there) are another. Not that it has helped us any. In Southern Nevada, where it hasn't rained it more than 6 months now, the hatch has been and will be horrible. Moving north where water is less of an issue should be better. NDOW also puts out GIS species map data that can be overlaid on Google Earth Pro.
