Stand location is something I am not short on, weather it be ladders or climbers and even the portable useing tree steps, not to mention the ambush rock ledges that I have available, so I have all kind of options on where to hunt. The hardest element that I have to deal with is not people or even the cold, its the wind.
Bowdacious, right on about the wind and its changes, I usually start my stalk going down the mountain at daybreak anticapateing thermal currents comeing up the mountain as I work parallel to revenes, these winds/thermal currents I encounter change as I encounter rock faces/ledges as some of the currents change completely and then your busted, but it comes in learning the terrain your hunting. The winds are so unpredictable and will bust you and for that reason I like staying up high, but I am continuiously monitoring the wind.
I thinks thats kewl Tobyn, pass it on. Bobby
