Sounds like there going to get some snow today, then its going to be 40's for a high most of the week. Probably won't melt off all the snow.

One of the most important things people need to get out of scouting and workshops is how to read the terrain. If you can read and break it down the beds will be in those spaces. This applies to any terrain, marsh, swamp, hill. Seeing the bed without snow is nice, but being able to find it based on the land features is step 1.

We have lots of people traveling to get to this workshop. We’re not cancelling it for a little snow cover.

Should be a great time, looking forward to it. Bring your maps to review afterwards.

How much snow cover do you have on your farm? I have 18-20 inches br Alexandria MN. Nice to see some cover.
