1 and -26 windchill, but better than -51. I think 82 was the last winter with these lows.

Cane and Magnolia tend to make good arrow.

I have cross country skied an hour and a half at -26 below (no wind chill factor) and yesterday sat up in a tree at 19 degrees for about 21/2 hours. The later was colder. Put warmers in my boots and layers on layers. Not sure shooting would have been very good either. But hey, it was glorious and I am alive!

Pat if I could do it I surely would. I enjoy Wyoming but it's at it's best from April to October.  The cold never used to bother me much but at 54 I get frustrated with it.  All is not lost, it's now -21, Spring is right around the corner.  :D

Sounds like good coyote hunting to me Doug! Just checked the weather in Laramie before I came to TradGang as a matter of fact. Those dogs get mighty hungry in this cold.  :)
