Title: Methow late report?
Post by: wsmnut on November 14, 2012, 07:21:50 PM: Anyone have any news regarding how the Methow late permit folks are faring?
I see that there has been some low temps and snow to help.
Seems like that area has been quiet this year?

Post by: Jingles on November 14, 2012, 08:05:12 PM: You're right not the same deer this was no where near the airport and a long ways off any road so road hunters need not apply :)
