Default When does it end?

OK.....so it's really over....ground's frozen hard.

When does it usually thaw? Does anybody have a date recorded from last year (in this neck of the woods)....when they were first able to hunt again? Greg.....you were able to hunt until Dec 15th last year....when were you able to go out again?

I just got permission to do a couple places in the springtime. One of them a 100 acre property that used to have 4 other houses on it that were all torn down in the 60s. It's in Washington County Pa.

I hate winter.....

Hi Wyatt,

I wish I could, Greg. I'm busier than a one armed wallpaper hanger with poison ivy trying to catch up. The good news is that I'm making some progress.

I appreciate the offer though. John's gonna start thinkin' I don't want to go with him.....poor guy's gonna get a complex.

Well....back to work for me, but thanks for the tip. I hear woods hunting is good all winter long if I get too much withdrawal.

Wyatt

Hope your able to get out for a while. Up here, its really cold now, and we got some snow on the ground. Lakes are froze or are freezing over as we speak. I don't expect to be able to get out till the end of March at least. I do look forward to reading what the rest of ya find over the winter months.
