I have heard that some roads have snow and ice on them, and the lower roads are clear.  That's fine for now, but let about 200 trucks drive over all the snow this weekend, and Monday will be like a slip and slide.  I'm packing my chains for sure!!!  I hope the buck only season keeps some of the dudes out of there, but I doubt it will.

My dad and I are honestly thinking about running up and watching all the hunters trying to make it down or even up through the Derby mud....always a good show right there!!! LOL  I bet we could actually sell tickets!! You locals or people that have been there know what I am talking about! LMAO  Good luck to any and all newbies trying it out! LOL

 :bash: :bash:I knew better than to go on opening day.  I am home and it is only noon.  I stop counting at 30 trucks and I am sure there were closer to 100 on the roads that I used to get out.  So much for the 3pt min keeping people away.....I wish WDFW would pull their heads out of the butts and stop closing units. When they do all the yayhoooos pile into one unit.  I have never been this pissed off after a day of hunting. >:( >:(
