Getting ready for MI muzzleloader deer season and the fact that I'm going to have to hire a snow plow for the family camp in da U.P. got me thinking about snow and scent retention.
Anyone have any scoop on how much snow (say 4 inches or deeper) retains ground scent?
I was presuming even with rubber pac boots, or rubber knee boots a hunter still leaves ground scent,but didn't know how it compares to rubber boots on bare ground....

Re: Ground scent retention in snow
It seems like snow does not hold ground scent as much as bare ground. Just judging by how many times I see deer cross my path in the snow and never react. Often times they walk in my tracks.
