4 of us traveling on Sunday…hunting mon-wed, maybe thur…warm temps melted some snow yesterday, 3-4” forecasted sat with strong wind…birds bunched again, I’m sure…looked at SD 511 and saw my area via the highway cameras…not too bad at this point…lows around 16-25 and highs 30-40 on hunting days…not too bad…some knee high drifts I suspect but once in the cover shouldn’t be too bad…no real snow issues 3-4 days ago, decent melting since then…E/SE SD not too bad…look at the SD 511 camera shots… current forecasted low temps for mon-wed are 20, 26, 21…not bad for the low temps….

I am going somewhere on the Saturday after Christmas and was hoping that the snow would be manageable. I contemplated North Dakota but that’s a long drive this time of year. Not as much snow up there but you pay for it with the cold.

We were supposed to leave this morning, but pushed it back 2 days. Freezing sleet and ice, and then 2inches of snow then 50 MPH gusts tomorrow, we will go out Saturday during the freeze, probably not hunt much that day maybe a little road hunts, quick in and out. Im sure we will go out and freeze our butts off on Sunday, but really looking forward to Monday - Wed

I was going to try the week of new years where i normally hunt, but advanced weather reports have been very random. So I have shifted to going to Nebraska and chase quail and pheasants.

Just got back from the eastern half of the state. The last few days were interesting. Rain/sleet/snow...and ice. So much ice.
