    SNOW! TONS OF SNOW! What would be some of your tips for deep snow deer/coyote hunting. usually this time of year we only have maybe a foot we now have 3-4+ feet of snow and its seemed to lock everything up. I refrained from setting up my set where the yotes usually run because there is zero sign. The only sign i can seem to consitently find is rabbit sign but no dog tracks anywhere near.

    If you have 3-4 feet of snow in fields. they probably migrated to thick wooded area's where the snow wasn't able to get that deep...

    Thanks everyone. Im hunting a mountain with a huge abandoned mine at the base and when there was only 3-4 inches it was booming but ever since the thick stuff happened the sign had disappeared i went out rabbit hunting a few days ago and there was tons of rabbit sign but no dogs. Im pulling out the snow shoes tomorrow to see if i can get a fix on a location.

    We only got two feet of snow and I can't figure out what to hunt where.

    trails. When the snow gets deep that is the very best time to pattern a deer. Look for trails that are packed down.
