Default Zama bison hunt

Hey guys... anyone have any info on what the snow conditions are like in the Zama area? Looking at heading that way after the Wainwright ML season as my son was lucky enough to draw that bison tag this year, also if anyone has any helpful information on where you are seeing bison I would love to hear from you.. if anyone else has a tag and is heading up if you wanted to swap phone # and help each other out send me a PM....

Jim...

Thanks for the heads up, We have talked to Dave the local Bioaligest, but he didn't have much to say. I'll give F&W a call.

Will send you a PM we are heading up for the opener. What Muskeg Runner said is consistent with what others up there have told us. Hope there is a few around!

Hey Jim, I'll be heading up Jan 4 and we have 2 tags in our group. If you have any sightings up there would you mind letting me know where? I want to start marking on a map where the sightings are so we can come up with a good game plan that will hopefully make us successful.
