Anyone been around 16D in the last couple of days. My boy has a cow hunt the day after Christmas and I was wondering if we were going to be on hard crunchy snow. I am hoping not since it is his first hunt and I want it to be as easy as possible on him.

I've got about 4" left from the 6-8" I had and am looking at Mangas Mtn getting socked in now again. I'm @ 7500'. Some crunchy ,some blowing powder around.Winter for sure.

It's here!!I can't see 100 yrds now.
I think there are 3 storms before Xmas lined up.

Well I guess I'll be sure to take the sled too. At least I should be able to tell where they are and where the are not.

Don't get a cheap sled, get a good one. It really sucks to have the rope tear out on the drag out.

I just got back from scouting for the same hunt for my daughter. Alot of snow up high and around Aragon, but it seems to be melting pretty fast.

I was in 16e over the weekend helping a couple buddies on their cow elk hunt. We were in about 6" of snow on opening day which wasn't bad. It was the friggin fog and 30-mile winds in 18-degrees that made for miserable conditions. All's well that ends well though--after a three-mile track in the snow we finally caught up to some and they both tagged out.
