I&#8217;m here shooting for just a couple of days but oh boy, what a 36hrs already! Here are two &#8220;out the window&#8221; shots from last night and this morning. The top is the mud incrusted head of a big boy Bison. One of the HUGE benefits of the snow is the mud it made. The bison roll in it and much of it sticks. It takes the common and makes it uncommon.
