Tons of people out on Friday. This was my take after being relegated to a pothole the size of a car. Good thing the snipe were flying to make it interesting.

I opted to do something else for the closer instead of fight the crowds for the couple of slivers of open water on Saturday. It was subzero windchill. My 13 year old made an excellent neck shot at 50 yards. The tenderloins were amazing last night.
Just a warning that things can go south in a hurry in these cold temps. My 16 year old did not dress warm enough and passed out a couple times from hypothermia. When his eyes were in the back of his head and he had irregular breathing following by violent shakes, it was pretty scary especially when the call to 911 didn't go through. We had a pretty good hike to get back to the truck. We ended up covered him up in our coats with legs elevated and gave him a priesthood blessing. After about 10 minutes of rest, we were able to help him get him back to the truck and warm him up. Be careful, especially when you have hard headed, know it all teenagers with you that are too tough to tell you just how cold they really are.
