Default Man It Is Cold

Love this site. As a newbie I'm already finding cool stuff i.e. info from experienced md'ers. It is -20 here in minnesota so there is no way I can use my new DFX. Thats ok, feel like there is so much to learn before I hit the trail anyway. Just wanted to introduce myself.

Happy digging,
Dan

Welcome Dwig; yes this is a great place to gather info prior to that first Spring hunt. Winter doesn't last forever, even in Minnesota. I've sweltered and swatted many a skeeter in your great state.
