For some reason the game cam by the pond didn't work (maybe user error hehe) but we got some good shots from the West gate.

Big herd of deer and what I think is an elk with her baby (I'm not a bovine identification expert so someone please correct me if I'm wrong

Only one action shot today. Still no pics from the one at the mini pond, I think it needs some tinkering. Since we got a new one last week I hung up one of the old ones (switched new one to the gate) by another (currently dry) pond so maybe it'll catch some cool stuff

Caught a wild Dez on the game cams! Not much else other than some windy, snowy days showing up on there. The deer have figured out where the cams are and are hiding, I think. We weren't able to get to two of them because the snow is too deep, but I might trek out on my snowshoes to go find them if Clayton plots them on a map for us.

Nothing terribly interesting on the game cams except this handsome, sasquatch-lookin' fella. Maybe we'll see some deer or other critters out there as it warms up more.

Nice little herd of elk hanging out by the gate. Cute, fluffy buns there, furball.

Here's a nice little herd of deer milling around and nibbling on things.
