The last 3 years around here they've been fully prime on November 15, pretty much to the day. Tuesday and Wednesday I have appointments and snow is forecasted Wednesday night/Thursday. I don't want to wait until Friday so Sunday/Monday it is.

You're much more in tune than I am, they look different every year to me.

I base it on the colour of the hide.......My first clear (non-blue) coyote hide. I wouldn't be able to tell by the fur alone.

How is everyone else making out with their prep work?
A shanty like that before the oil went dry would fetch ya 3 grande a month rent income?
Better than trapping...

Those days are over

Nice shanty.
