My nephew came home from his mission in California two weeks ago and one of the things he wanted to do first was come from Cache Valley and hunt. My dad, my brother, and his 4 boys got here Wednesday and are still here thanks to the weather on I80 in Wyoming and crazy snow amounts in Utah.

Thursday we took 7 of us out. We got 22. Lots of singles and doubles that decoyed marvelously. Friday, 10. Bluebird day with no wind. That was tougher hunting. Evening wind on Thursday drifted county roads in so we had to take alternate route in Friday.

Saturday was weird conditions. COLD temps with an east wind. That really throws the blind/decoy spread off and we only killed 3 that day. All told, we killed 35 in 3 days. Will head out here today for an afternoon shoot. Pretty fun to get new hunters out that don't shoot well.

LOL - I'm becoming more and more of a hater of the cold!! Birds in your face for three days - sign me up! Freezing cold - negative ghost rider!

Hope all is well with you and yours!

We were in Wyoming chasing geese this weekend day one was perfect weather. Day two sub zero temps, 30 plus mph winds and lots of new snow. How much is hard to tell when it comes sideways. it was enough we nearly lost decoys before we dug them out of the freshest snow. Freezing cold yes, fun, absolutely!

The other kinda honkers in your face is the most fun. But geese are a close 2nd…

I don't do heat. I'm built for Yeti conditions. I didn't have gloves on for most of the afternnon yesterday and it was -15 wind chill.

I don’t mind being out in the cold, but I do hate being cold! That said, 3 days and 35 geese? I’d just put on more layers!!

I didn't get cold. The east wind wasn't fun at all and that had birds all sorts of messed up. I should have flipped everything around. I take a lot of layers and rarely put them all on. My issue is if I get too many layers on I can't get my gun up very well. I laughed and laughed at the birds missed by the young shooters that were in our faces.
