Snowshoe rabbits
« on: January 05, 2015, 08:49:50 PM »
Are there many snowshoe rabbits in the Baker Lake area? If so where would you recommend I go? I've had this dream of hunting them on snowshoes, just seems fun to me.

NW if you want to give it a shot we could arrange a time and get our snowshoes and guns out. Worst case we snowshoe armed?!

Season runs through March 31.

I figured "NW- GSP" would run GSPs ;-)

Funny you say that, when we ran beagles all the time, we off and on had 4 to 7 of them, we never had a problem with snowshoes running out, usually we hunted them running from patch to patch and set up accordingly.
