I just left on Friday, and the snow was less than a foot in most areas. Birds? As a group we seemed to think they were thick in some areas but not in others. Fines? I received a fine for not using one of their pull off areas. 120, ca. We split our bou down the back without gutting and took the fronts, backs, and loins. We tried one of the loins last night and it was tougher than shoe leather. LOL. Good Luck.
