Went in last night and shot a cow just before dark. Waited as long as I could but the closest ones were 370yds. Drug her down the steep part just to dress her out by headlamp. I took her down to the bottom of a draw and propped her open and threw a shirt over the hams and lions.
The weather put down three inches of snow by morning, but I liked that. I'd take my plastic sleds in and drag her out about a mile.
Waiting for my help that morning the wind picked up. Still snowing. By the time we got to the elk we had about 8" of snow,15mph breeze. About -5 with the windchill.
Suppose to go back in tomorrow and get one more with the boy. Drifts are growing. On the way out I past one that was up to my window on the old Ford. It's going to be deep in the morning. and colder.
