Dry Winter

[mtncook]

Seems pretty moderate here.  We could really use the snow.  The sled guys are getting itchy thumbs here also.
 
Easy on the game, they are still spread out. Makes thee wolves work harder.

So far a warm brown winter here where I live in MT. The deer are laying around like it's summer

Maybe we will be able to find deer sheds in the high country next year! the snows will come just giving the critters a little break maybe.nwhunter

Less winter kill = more tags next year....keep dreaming

Yep real mild this year so far. I think the snow will come and hopefully be shed hunting on normal ground this year.

We're only 2 weeks into winter, got 11 weeks to go. Seems like last year the mountains got lots of snow even in April and May, if I'm remembering correctly.

Yeah you are right, in April there was still lots of snow up high by where I was shed hunting.

 Just more reasons for WDFW to add more wolves to the picture!  Not give out a few more tags...

I see that Bluewood only has 25" of snow, and that's at 4800' elevation.

I'm sure they wil give out fewer tag as a result but I don't think there will be a reason for it  The end result of this winter will be lack of good feed in the spring! now if thats coupled with a hard and early winter next fall Then we are going to have serious problems

Timing and quantity of spring/early summer rain has a lot more affect on quantity and quality of grass than winter snowpack.
