Back in the winter of 96-97 when there were record snows the only way the deer were getting around up there was on roads and packed snowmobile trails. Sometimes the deer were running down the trails with nowhere to go when the sleds came down them. Friend of mine said a few jumped off the trail and completely disappeared in the deep snow! Tough country up there in the snowbelt. :shock:

Yikes. How does a deer even survive during winters like that?

Not cool.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.
