    How's the Snow Pack in your Area So Far?

    Well its getting close to mid winter now and it gets a hunter wondering how the critters are making out. Looking for some reports around the province, what're you seeing.. low, average, choking on the white stuff?

    Right now in the valley bottom right in Hope we're down to around a foot and its raining and melting steadily. Up at the Coq summit the snow pack shown on dbc is 125 cm at the summit that's about 1200 metres elev iirc, and its melting today. So so far on the west slope of the Cascades I'd say around average so far, with a few weeks of heavy snow and tough going earlier. Melting trend for now.
    its gonna take a life time to hunt and fish all this

    Heading to the cabin tomorrow for awhile, I'll try to remember to report on the Tulameen snow pack.
    I'll probably get stuck just getting to our door.

    Its raining in the Gar. Way less snow than last year. I hope the whiteys are doing well.

    Very little snow in Vanderhoof. Little bit in November which stayed, cold December but almost no snowfall. It's warmed up a bit in January and we seen a few inches. I doubt there is 10" right now locally

    If memory serves you central interior types have had a few wimpy winters lately, snowfall wise anyway?

    And if memory serves on this one last years snow came late no? Good to hear the critters are getting off easy so far
