Was a chilly 42F and steady rainfall all day in the Northland. Tomorrow is gun deer season in MI, and hopefully it clears up a bit for the morning. I remember a couple soakers, including 1989 that went from RN/Sleet over to heavy snow after dark on the 15th and then the bliz raged all day on the 16th. The morning of the 17th dawned clear, calm, but very crisp & gorgeous with a fresh foot of snow on the ground and the deer were on the move after hunkering down the past two days. We were hunting in NEMI's Alcona county back then. There were other snows during my almost 20 yrs of deer camp, but none were close to '89

I agree with much of what you're saying here.

Perhaps, but I don't if that rule works as well with him since he gets so much snow anyway.

Yep... I was thinking the same thing!

I was really thinking about Peshastin for a while. More snow than Cashmere, but still the wide open feel and some trees.
