I know we have them in stevens county. Had 2 fly out of a dead snag I was cutting down this summer, one buzzed us for 5 minutes afterwards it was really cool.

Flying Squirrels are nocturnal critters.  If it was Scrat, the Saber-toothed Flying Squirrel, you'd run too!  :chuckle:
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"

They haven't quite managed to glide out here to our trees....  Back in WI, when I was a kid, we had one bonzai into our camp and almost landed in the campfire.  It was pretty cool to see.
