How much snow is too much snow for you to keep trapping When my quad won't go, I don't have a sled.
I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.

As long as I can bust the drifts I'm good to go, I can always move into the deep draws where the snow is more manageable if needed or set out big baits to limit my travel but still run a good amount of snares.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

No amount of snow stops me.Actually wait for snow to be able to get into some good fur pockets. Snow allows you to drive right up to the beaver.No carrying of heavy animals.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

The snow doesn't bother us much (the little that we get). It's the freezing rain that ices up the roads and even locks up the snares that stops me.

Last night started with freezing rain, changed to sleet, changed to snow... We got 6 inches of snow which is not that much, but the darned ice underneath it is tough. The gravel roads are an ice rink even with a 4 wheel drive.
