Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

The SD guys know the best and they're a rugged lot!! Here are my suggestions:
1. Mushers Wax and/or boots for the pups. I've done well with Mushers Wax;
2. Something that covers your head/ears and secures under your chin because the wind will remove your hat if not secured.
3. Extra food for the dogs;
4. Handwarmer in the pocket on the side of your trigger hand;
5. Birds love to bunch up in cover, don't pass any burning bushes on the section roads without checking closely for roosters:
6. Keep the hunts short;
7. Late season is the best- send photos!! I'm jealous.

I second Chris' suggestions, and can vouch for Musher's Secret to protect your pup's feet. Boots are handy if there are some foot issues needing protection.
I would add one more suggestion. If everything is frozen, don't forget to carry water afield for your pup. Dehydration can happen in freezing weather, too.
