Cheetah Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 FYI for anyone planning an early trip out for the opener this weekend... The Black Hills got snowed in from the storm last night. I heard on the radio that Rapid City got 20 inches. My aunt and uncle live SW of Rapid and my uncle measured 3 feet on the deck this morning. It has been a drought winter up to now, only a few inches total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rundrave Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 not to mention the interstate on 90 is closed. I think they got it opened back up from Sioux Falls to Mitchell. Its pretty bad down here in SE SD, with the ice and wind. Gonna only get worse with heavy wet snow coming tonight and tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borch Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Last time we were out there we got 3 feet and it shut us down for a day. Some areas ended up with almost 6 feet. I unreal how fast it melts there in the spring. I've been out there twice now during or a day after a major snow storm and was hunting in short order afterwards. Just be aware that some areas may not be huntable longer than others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walters12 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Were heading out there on the 18th.. Hope this snow melts fast. What you guys think it will do to the birds? I'm assuming slow them down for awhile, but hoping a week will change for the better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theghost_03 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I was to leave Friday but I've decided to postpone this years trip. Just a gamble this early in the season out there with the weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
