    Snow depths/minimum maintenance roads

    Just feeling the desire with our seasons closed to get 1 more trip in. Used to frequent Kansas in the past until long term droughts persisted...sure miss that opportunity for quail and pheasant. You know your old when you think of the past all to often. Thanks for the replies bb et al.

    Snow depths/minimum maintenance roads

    Doesn't sound like a trip that I should undertake alone. The thought of getting stuck on a minimum maintenance road in January may be foolish. I have made 3 trips to SD since November and enjoyed myself and the 3 dogs immensely. Perhaps wisdom as a 64 year old should intervene and keep me home?

    Upland strap vest you can load birds in

    I'm in the market for a final rise vest, which model do you recommend? I'm thinking the Summit. I have a browning bird and lite, but carrying 2 - 32oz water bottles and a couple of pheasants feels heavy towards my back. And the water bottle holders seem alittle far back to reach. Or perhaps...

    Snow depths

    Any chance or predictions that there will be a substantial melting of snow before the end of January? Sure would like to make another run there if minimum maintenance roads become drivable. Not a fan of walking on crunchy snow and seeing my dogs have the edges of their pads cut..

    Iowa hunting atlas?

    More like the geriatric league. If I ever find the badger that dug that hole, he is a goner! Happened the first day in SD last year, surgery/recovery has been brutal. Felt just as bad for the 3 setters who missed the entire fall hunting season while I was in a cast for 3 months. In a matter...

    Iowa hunting atlas?

    Thank you for the assistance. Planning a early December trip to the north central or north west. Don't think I qualify to be hot spotting since I've never been there. (Lol) Should be fun to extend my season in Iowa from my previous 10 days (2 five day trips) in south dakota. Need to make up...

    Iowa hunting atlas?

    Wonder if that atlas lists all public hunting areas (wpa, gpa, ihap) with roads over layed? Tentatively planning a first trip to Iowa, since Kansas and Nebraska locations that I frequent are suffering from long term drought and crp conversions. So sad for those 2 states.

    Iowa hunting atlas?

    Does Iowa publish a paper hunting atlas similar to south dakota, Kansas and Nebraska. Was looking online only to view their arcgis program. Prefer paper over computer, which makes me old and a first timer to Iowa pheasant hunting.

    Boots

    Hunted sw nebraska afew years ago prior to consecutive multi year droughts. Typical 5 day hunt in early November and again in early December. Not sure why anyone would wear muck boots there when it was absolutely powder dry. Unless you want wet soggy merino socks after being encapsulated in...
