I'm researching a couple areas and have a few (lots actually) questions for the Mule Deer experts. I realize the deer can be anywhere from the sage flats to above timberline during archery. At what point do you start to rule out the deer near timberline? Certainly a big snow could drive them down, but does the typical Oct snow drive them down? Worth even considering areas near timberline during 2nd rifle if there have been no major snows?
