[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2735495, member: 91783"] I got out some today as expected with all of the wind and snow the south facing hills were blown clear, the north facing hills, draws and low places were blown full of snow. The animals were pretty much on the south facing blown clear hill sides eating or laying in the sun. Here even if it doesn't get above freezing the sun shining on the darker browns will melt snow and ice so the animals will have a drink. The coyotes and other predators will be laying in the sun out of the wind as well. Alot of the time the wind will let up after the sun sets and they will then get out and hunt. The front that hit us has now moved east and you guys are now catching the brunt of it. I hope that you are keeping in out of it the best that you can. Guys like VenceMule and so many more of us know how hard it is to not get out and hunt before and after the fronts move in or out but also know how dangerous this type of weather can be. We usually don't get the ice storms like a lot of the country does we do in the spring get wet snow blowing horizontal that builds up on things. The temperature got to 46 today and the snow is crusted if you are having to travel in it that really makes for some tough going. when you break through the crust it's a real problem to dig out of it, but the good thing is that with the 40 mph winds it's not drifting now.
