I went up north where my stand is and I deer hunt just to see if there are any animals out and about. Wow, there's 4 ft of snow and even with snow shoes it was fun trying to stay above the snow. The land owner put a cover over the a ground feeder he has when the snow started to fall in Nov, it was 4 ft high.
It worked until the end of deer season!
