Fresh snow last night, thought I'd go hike up a favorite canyon, see how the mule deer are doing and maybe pop a coyote. Saw about 30 mule deer, looking healthy. No luck on the coyote, but it was a great walk up in the local hills.
My trail, through the unbroken snow:
Steep country. Apple orchard down in the bottom:
This one liked my varmint call. I was hoping for a coyote though...
They seem to like hanging around big rocky outcroppings:
Great way to spend part of my day, up in the local hills with "my" mule deer herd. You can tell, they're just terrified of me... Outside of hunting season, I almost never see anyone else up there, just me and the deer. Occasionally the bighorn sheep. Often I'll see golden eagles. Now and again a coyote. It makes for a good walk, not far from town.
