I think it is different in the south as well even for scent. You guys get warm weather during winter at times and I think it helps. Further north it freezes and stays frozen. I know when it is -20's or -30's there isn't much scent at all till things warm up. Also full carcasses are frozen solid and can sit there for along time because they are not getting opened up and no scent is getting out. Just some things I have noticed talking to people and what I see works and what doesn't. I know when I find a fresh roadkill in real cold weather and cut the guts open the birds and the predators smash a bait and that only lasts for a couple few days till it freezes up then it slows right down
