I finally made it back up to check on the food that I had put out and it was barely even touched! I guess it’s true what they say, when the snow starts to fall the deer leave our area and herd-up elsewhere. We still had a god couple of feet so it is probably a good idea for the deer to move out for the winter.
We did manage to hit some trails and check out the bush for a couple of hours and check out a section that is being marked for logging. It may work out as it looks as though the area that will be logged is close to where I was thinking of putting a stand so with some fresh growth in the next few years and now easier access to a couple parts of our bush it may help, one all the noise and commotion cools down, although with logging in our area in the past we haven’t noticed much of a change in the deer from the noise or whatnot.
In any case, I will be up there again over Easter so I will be putting out more food at that time and as well putting out a homemade salt station for the deer so at that time there will be a little more to put up.
