Geesh...can ya buy a break? Blizzard Warning today? A foot of new, temps below freezing and down to single digits all week long?? Dammmmm.

We are catching a break. Not getting 2 feet of snow!!

Right now it is a balmy 32 degrees. 2 inches of wet new snow melting fast. The road to Opheim was closed this morning and their town was without power.

The geese think it is spring as they are arriving by the hundreds and thousands. Funny to see them standing on 18 inches of snow looking at each other like WTF are we doing up here? Spring is coming but hopefully not really fast or I will need a boat to get to work.

Man what the heck is going on up there. It's in the 80's and sunny, but that's pretty normal for us. Just wish we could get one of those fronts to peak down here and dump some rain.

Few inches in Billings last night, up to 25 inches in some of the local mountain stations... thats pretty normal though... poor old Glasgow.... dam.... you guys over 100" for the season now aren't ya?

Would like to hear from NEMONT or MILLER and get their take on the critter impact.....Hearing the lopes are taking a beating.

As of last night@ 6 we were at 101 andchange. I think we got a couple more inches after that. Still a bunch of critters around but last weeks thaw there were a ton of carcasses around

Well they updated the official snowfall for the season to an even 105 inches.

The winter kill for antelope will be very very high. What winter didn't kill outright I think the coyotes got alot of the rest. Driving around it is not hard to find dead antelope in large numbers. The mule deer will also be hurt but not as badly. The whitetails will be fine. Pheasants need a good hatch year to rebound. The sharptail know how to survive winter.

Stinks down here by the river. The county road has been under water above the house for the past 37 days. The only time we could get out to town was just the right combo of snow melt/ground still frozen. Was almost dry enough to go cross country and now this darn snow comes and makes everything a mudpit again. Hoping it gets down cold enough to get out of here tonight. The ice and flooding pushed all the deer out of the river bottoms and the whitetails are living out in country that is more suitable for speed goats. Pictured is my view from the house. Only 22 miles to the gravel.
I am getting a bit beyond cabin fever.

Could be worse twodot, you could live in Chicago.
