El Dorado Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 It's a great spot. not much to worry about there as long as you are equipped to take care of yourself in isolated areas. This time of the year Wx can still get nasty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onion gold Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Has anyone prospected in Placerities NV? If so any tips on camping anything to watch out for? (I carry big guns so that should not be an issuea)Definately have 4WD as the roads get very slick when wet. Also, there is no cell service in Placerites. You will have to go almost to Lovelock or Imlay Pass to call out, unless you have satellite service. With good weather there isn't much of an issue other than the area has been hunted a lot.Good luck, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
