Since posting this we have been blasted with snow...and the wdfw has closed the cougar season. I can't get into two of my back country leases now. I'll be getting ahold of all the guys that emailed me about coming up and try to move the dates a little . On Friday a worker at the power sub-station just 400 yds up the highway from the Lodge was working outside and spotted a cougar stalking what he thought was a deer. The snowmobilers that were staying at the Lodge told me about it and I went and talked with the guy that spotted the cat. He showed me where and I spent a few hours looking and calling with no luck. Since Sat. was the last day of the cougar season--thanks a lot wdfw--- I tried further to the North with no luck. Did not cut one track of cats or coyotes. Snow was knee deep up along the base of the cliffs. We got another 10 inches Sat. night. Thanks again to everyone responding and we'll be in touch.
