buckchaser Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I've been planning a backcountry rifle hunt into the northern Adirondacks to take place late November/early December this year. With my work schedule I usually cannot take large chunks of time to hunt. This year I took an unpaid leavel to make it happen - but the weather forecast for the regions shows massive winter storms arriving next week. Between the affect this would have on deer behaviour and (more importantly) my ability to camp out for the duration of the hunt, I am considering some possible "Plan B" options. I also bowhunt and would definitely consider a late season (mid December bowhunt) in another area of New York that isn't going to be hammered by winter just yet. Any pointers on regions with extensive public land and reasonable deer populations would be appreciated. I'm coming from Canada (Ottawa, Ontario), but willing to drive into central/western New York. Thanks for any assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApexerER Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I can't really help with your question but that really sucks...plan the trip..get the time off and it doesn't sound like it is working out. Can u just delay a couple days and still do the trip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckchaser Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 It really depends on the amount of snow that falls. On the lower end it could be 10 - 20 cm which is totally "doable" for what I have planned. If they get 50 cm plus, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
