Thorny,
Bring your snoeshoes-we have another week of season for grouse and pheasants.
Only the toughest birds and hunters are out there now, and Pine county is deep in the white stuff. The last trip to Lincoln county, MN for roosters featured about 5 degree temps and gusts to 50 MPH or so, quite cold, but the birds are out there.
My setter is in heat, so I'll be alone on the prarie this weekend. No sense confusing my buddy's young GSP.
Best,
Ted
