Jan 16, 2016

Jan 16, 2016 12:30PM-4: 30PM Rabbit hunting with Zeta and Dick’s dog Lacy and Scott
Where: Lafarge, WI
Weather: mostly cloudy, 7°, W17, 6 inches of crunchy snow cover
Bagged: Me: two cotton tails, Scott: nothing

It was a cold rabbit-hunting day. The wind was strong, the rabbits were hard to find and the dogs could not smell. Even though it was quite cold, I was dress appropriately and did not notice it being that cold.
It was tough for the dogs however. The snow was very crusty, except for about ½ inch of fluff that was on top of the crust. The dogs were able to get around quite well, but their feet took a lot of punishment. The scenting also seemed to be very poor. They did have a couple of goods runs but for the most part they struggled.
