Wet, heavy snow again this afternoon. Got wet and cold, but Willie and I had a good day.

Harold - I remember GBE writing about that

he once had a brace of very white dogs - when he hunted them in the snow he added a couple streamers of surveyors tape to the collars to be able to see them as they moved through the covers

Well, snowed most all night again, every Bush and limb hanging heavy with snow. Record snowfall and low Temps for the UP for this time of year. This is my 36th year to hunt the UP, and seen nothing like it. Going to stay thru Saturday. Hoping things moderate. Did move 1 woodcock yesterday , didn't have the heart to shoot at it, but did take the 3 grouse. Hoping snow comes up the brush for at least a late afternoon hunt
