     Everyone wishing to work at the guzzler sites should bring a small flashlight, raingear (not a poncho), a mid-weight jacket, and must attend a mandatory helicopter safety briefing. We also recommend that you bring a cap, sunscreen, gloves (leather is best), and good boots with a lug sole.      We will meet at the back of the Van Horn Convention Center on the west end of town at 7:00AM on Friday morning and then caravan out to the work site together through locked gates on private property. It is important that we stay together and go out in as few vehicles as possible as there will be limited room to park at the staging area. Four wheel drive and/or high clearance vehicles are recommended as the roads can be very rough!
