Default Anyone else headed up to 521 for elk wondering about snow cover?

Just looking to find out how much snow is on the ground up there hopefully the colder weather gets the elk moving.

Default Just drove through there this morning

Spent a few days in 526. 12 to 18" snow there, looked like less in 521. More coming down though.

Bring snowshoes and a sled, we got a good dump over night.

Good luck.

Default Snow and Cold

I'm north of Sexsmith and just south of 522, we had 6-8 inches of snow (depending on location) and it's -27 at the house this morning.
Elk should be feeding hard now with this cold, snowmobile would be the choice for travel and hauling with a skimmer!
Good luck!
