I've also heard SE  MT has been a lot warmer with not much snow.


Probably double check your sources.  Miles City south to Ashland has received several feet of snow since January.  In addition, there have been a number of sub zero days.

  Sister in law lives in Miles City.  Sounds like it's been slamming them.

That's a bummer that winter is hitting them so late and hard over there.  I am going to apply for the first time for a deer tag anyway.  I am willing to bet even with some winter kill, the hunting will still be better than I have ever experienced here in Washington!

H-Hunter,
   I agree, sucks they’re getting hit hard late, but I just applied for my first MT deer tag last night. I hear so many good things and my job never afforded me enough time to head over until now. Really looking forward to it!

Montana is a huge state, as big as two or three smaller states, as a result part of the state can get slammed and other parts not so bad. The previous winter hit us hard where I usually hunt, we had to go to a different part of Montana and leased another ranch that wasn't harmed, it still had lots of deer. Two days ago I was talking to one of my guides who lives in Bozeman and he said he was looking at about 60 whitetail in the field behind his house and almost no snow on the ground. He didn't think the winter was doing any damage in that area.

I wonder if Wyoming is the same? This is the first I’ve heard of it being bad in Montana.

I think it's been not too bad so far in southwestern WY. January was the second mildest on record for northern Utah. Feb has been more like a normal winter. I think the biggest determiner is was the weather does in march and early April. I'm not sure what the weather has been like in eastern WY?
