The same day that we attended the Carson Valley Days Parade, and visited Ft. Churchill State Park, we did a little wandering around just for the fun of seeing some new country we'd never visited before. We found ourselves driving past the Mason Valley Wildlife Management Area, which might not have drawn us off the main road, but then we saw the sign for the Mason Valley Fish Hatchery. Most people wouldn't find that to be a big draw, but our family lived at a fish hatchery for several years for my husband's job and now we can't drive past one without stopping in. We're nerds, I know.
