Blizzard Coming
We are suppose to get 3" -5" of snow this afternoon. 8" - 13" by the end of Wednesday with strong winds on Wednesday. I am headed out in a little bit for an afternoon sit. Where would you sit with the snow coming down hard this afternoon? My 2 choices are down in an overgrown gravel pit where I would be out of the wind, (wind will be about 15 mph today) ora stand that I have along a river, right by a great spot where they cross the river. This spot would be a great spot to look over an open field.

We are supposed to get between 11-17 inches here...
I'm just gonna stop watching the television cause every time I turn it on, the forecast has increased. Should be interesting for those 1st season shotgun guys that still have tags left....

Well, thanks for your input guys. I really wanted to sit the river crossing stand, only because I have sat back in the gravel pit the last few evenings, and have not seen a deer. But when I got to the river crossing stand, it was clear that I would be looking right into the blowing snow, so I went back to the pit stand. I think we must have gotten about 4" of snow in the 2.5 hours that I was out there, and didnt see a deer. Didnt see any tracks on hte way out either.
