Had not seen it like this before. The bou moved off the ponds because the slush was freezing to their feet causing issues with the normal migration pattern. A large group was ~ 50 km south of Mirage 01 DEC but we did not know as they could not fly to scout. By 02 DEC the animals were 100-130 km south west and very hard to get to with the snow - deepest I have ever seen it. It was basically guides and clients all vying for that 1 track - day one was 3 animals - a good number of hunters left the second day. We tried to hunt above Km100 (closest point to 22B) - a group of 8 went out and were gone all day until midnight. They took 6 but the cost was too high for the numbers being had so they did not continue this on day 3. Even on the ride back out, we only saw 2 small groups crossing south so the main herd was still north of LG3/Bour.
Still cannot wait for next year - bringing a Skandic SWT
