Darned snow stuck on every tiny twig on Saturday. Really killed the deer hunting. You couldn't see anything in the woods.........excecpt snow-covered twigs. :o

that dont sound fun

Nothing like a little cold snow down the neck, ...eh.
It sure is beautiful though. :cool:

Nice looking, but nasty stuff to hunt in! Our last day of rifle season looked like that. :o

Beech has to be one of the prettiest trees there is.

Great pic Don.

Still rather confused about that snow. You're only 120+/- miles from me, and it was in the 50's Saturday. You must have got lake effect off Erie.:cool:

[buckbuster11]

LOL...nice pics.

I got about 2.5 pounds of snow down the back of the neck on Saturday.:mad:

I love hunting snow. Sadly we typically dont see it until after season ends.

If you have American Chestnut over 20', there's more than a few arborists in America that want to talk to you.:cool:

Nice pic Don. Have a few beech trees around our property. Don't usually see much if any snow here during our seasons though.

I've got a good handful of them over 20 feet tall. Funny thing.........I contacted a gal at Penn State who's big into the restoration deal with the ACF. She couldn't have given a crap....................except wanting my $100 to join their organization. :cool:

They can kiss my chestnuts. :D:p

[Tominator]

Interesting. Any of them pollinating yet? If you have blight resistant trees I'm sure they'd waive the $100 entrance fee. :D

Nice snow hunting is always good.

Errr, that's the worst feeling in the world!! When you're climbing up your stand and hit a twig and a bucket of snow fills up the back of your coat.

[Strut10]

Yep. Burrs all over the ground under the one. Couple under a few others.

I'll just keep my trees and my hundred bucks. :cool:

Ever eat any of the nuts? We have some Chinese chestnut in the area and they are pretty good. Deer and squirrel love them too though, so you have to be around when the burrs crack.

[Strut10]

Ever eat any of the nuts?

No. Didn't find the bunch of burrs until a couple weeks ago. It's a new tree in a different area of the Ranch. I never knew I had it.

[Tominator]

I'd start checking that tree in September with a pair of binocs and keep a close eye on it if you like chestnuts, they are delicious. While you're at it, check your beech trees too. Beech nut is small, but very tasty.

haha but its just nice getting out there!!!

I love snow. Too bad we mostly just get cold weather around here.
