Didn't know you could get into quail, what a hunt.
Harold, Merry Christmas!

Snow West of the Missouri river and South of 90 was non-existent. Was almost 60 the first day with an abnormal wind of 4 MPH! If only, we could put that in a bottle.

2nd day was East of Missouri river and 45 degrees for a high with same low winds. I found some snow deep in the tall bluestem grass and maybe a bit in some ditches, but that was it.

By the time you get here, it will likely be different......

As for quail, they are like chickens here in SD. They are not widely distributed through the state but can be found in good quantities in the prime areas. I think you are hunting by Huron which maybe too far East and North. Never know if someone is maintaining good habitat and predator control.
