Yesterday was the last day of archery on the mountain for this year. It was a beautiful morning starting with 12 degrees and a great sunrise.

There was a nice amount of soft, quiet snow on the ground. There was fresh sign, and I was hopeful.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much moving around us. We sat until close to dark. On the long hike back, we enjoyed some stump shooting.

MAY THE SPIRIT OF FRED BEAR GUIDE OUR ARROWS
Great Pics Jerry! Thanks for sharing.
Snow sure is beautiful. I just wish it wasn't so cold.
You've still got squirrels don't you? I'm getting ready for them myself. I may do 2 or 3 more doe hunts then its little critters til just about trout season. :shaka:
Izzy, yes I can hunt squirrel etc. gonna go do some rabbit too. The mountain is my favorite for deer though. I can still hunt deer below the mountain because it is a different zone. But there is something special about hunting the big bucks up top. I don't like going up there with the orange army around.
I hear you Jerry. Nice looking area you live in.
