Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
Hey Everybody,
Do any of you know if there's any water in the creek at Reavis Ranch this time of year?

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
I was out there labor day weekend and yes the creek is flowing. It's pretty much year round.

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
Wally's right. Campaign Creek looked good that weekend too, although I understand it's more seasonal...

Use the spring north of the orchard that has been described in some of my previous posts....

The bigger question is, "Are there apples at Reavis Ranch?"

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
We found maybe 6 trees with a good crop of apples. They won't last long.

Re: What is this feature? (Reavis North / Reavis Falls)
Hi all. Newbie here. Thanks for all of the great information on the site and in the forum. I'm planning a hike from Rogers Throughs to Reavis Ranch later this month. Can anyone tell me if there are any reliable water sources along the way or at the ranch?

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
Welcome to HAZ!
You will cross a perennial creek at 6.5mi just after the Fireline Trail junction, about a half mile before the ranch. It runs the length of Reavis Valley. It is easiest to access near the FIreline and Reavis Gap junctions.
(I moved your post to this more appropriate thread)

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
As far as I know, there is water year round there (at the ranch). But, I may be wrong.

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
I have never seen the spring north of the orchard dry - search through my posts on RR and you will find it.

Water availability at Reavis Ranch
I am heading into Reavis Ranch after Thanksgiving dinner (hopefully burn off some Turkey) and was wondering how the water situation looked in Reavis Creek. I would just normally carry everything necessary but after seeing the perks trip report and others i figured someone might be able to help me! Sounds like you all had a blast and I may have to join in on version 2.0

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
There was plenty of water after the rain. The creek wasn't flowing like some of the others at perks mentioned. I don't think you will have any issues. I am jealous you are going there. Have fun.

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
Make sure you filter the water. Otherwise there may still be trace amounts of beer mixed in thanks to "3 Days in Paradise with the Hippie".

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
Hahaha we will make sure to filter the water but no promises that I won't hike a Kiltlifter in with me. Thanks for the info and as I said before sounded like a blast I will have to make it out for a hike soon!

Re: Is there water at Reavis Ranch?
I'd double filter the water if I were you.
