Snow camo will really help out, but if you get in a spot where you can blend in you will be ok. If you can make a snow blind that would be good.

If you're using an Ecaller and placing it several yards away from your location, than I wouldn't worry too much about camo, since the coyotes would be looking to the sound. If you're using hand calls, simply find some vegitation that is not totally covered in snow and is as tall as your are in the sitting position, and sit in front of it. Don't move too much at the wrong time, and you'll do fine.
I sometimes hunt with a rancher friend of mine that seldom wears any camo., BUT he doesn't do the calling so the coyotes don't pick him out because they tend to concentrate on the source of the sound.

If you have an old sheet youcan rigsnow camo,brush a fewspots on the sheetwith some strong coffee to add stains for break up. The German military snow camo poncho I used touse looked like a tablecloth after a messy eater used it, and it worked great. All I had to do was sit on a stool and spread it out to cover my feet and the stool, and I melted into the background well enough fordeer to walk right by me without knowing that I was just feet from them.

I bought a pair of white overalls for $ 30.00 and a put some stripes on them with gray paint . I got them two sizes bigger so i could put them over water proof clothing . Also the white sheet trick works good too . I have a cheap lay down blind for waterfowl hunting and i throw the sheet over me/it when hunting in the snow .Off white tends to look better . the true white sheet i tried had a blue tint to it when laying on the snow ??
