We started at 9:30 pm last nite 15 degrees dumped my Cotton dog with two younger males Blaze and Canyon. We had three coons running a top the scrup oak on a side hill on that drop. Drove down the road to the next drop, dumped cotton and two females Bourbon and Shadow. They cold trailed for a while and the mercury was diving, now I really know the meaning of freezing your A$$ off. I decided to cut them off was able to catch up the two females and cotton showed himself for a few seconds cold trailing around then went deep. I sent my 2 buddy's and the females back to the truck and headed after him. After trailing him for over 20 minutes and tracking through knee deep snow he came up treed on a huge den tree in the sloughes. Usually I dont hunt unless its close to 30 degrees but I was aching to get out and so were the hounds. It was close to 1:00 am and under 10 degrees when I got to the tree. Notice the frost all over Cotton.

That sounds like coon hunting ME in Nov. lol

awesome. you sure can see that frost on her good in the last two pics. well done!

right on, ive never hunted coons in the snow before but looks like fun.

Thanx guys. I like hunting in the snow cause you get to see all the other tracks on the ground that the hounds have to track through to get the coon. Almost like like hunting lion but at nite and chasing coons Only bad thing is busting through it to keep up with the hounds. lol

Racin_GT is right thats about like coon hunting in ME in late NOV and early DEC myself and my buddy went a few nights this year and it was in the teens.

I think you make good dogs in extreme weather. Just my .02 cents. You guys still out runnin in the extreme cold now?
