" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Just to throw some more info out there for you folks hunting this area.

I was just up Cloverland Grade yesterday. The road into the National Forest is a mess but certainly passable...at least to the gate. Pulling a trailer might be a bit of fun but if they are pulling sleds on trailers into there then you should be able to get a small 5th wheel in there also. I guess you can't expect a lot after all the snow up there this season. Once you get off the road there is still a LOT of snow in places with drifts still there that are over 3" deep. I took a quick walk down an old skid road and spent most of the time falling through the snow up to my waist and hoisting myself back on top.

The good news is that it was damn near 60 degrees up there so the snow should continue to melt...and it's supposed to be a couple degrees hotter today. The bad news is that it looks like we have another series of systems rolling in over the second half of this week. Looks like the Blues will see a mixture of rain and snow through the weekend. Low temps won't be much lower than 31-33 degrees so it shouldn't be a lot...but just expect a little more of the white stuff.

Good luck guys! I'm lookin' forward to seeing the pics.

Phenomenal unit, with high numbers of bears in certain areas.
Good luck on your hunt, dune.
