Wolves spent the day at 7 mile bridge trying to bring down an elk, Bighorn  
sheep, elk and moose at Big Sky, and a handfull of bison between  Biscuit 
and Midway. Also about 70 bull elk in the Gallatin District.
 
There was about 6-10 inches of new snow in the park, with 12-20 at Big Sky, 
 all of which is much needed.  the snowpack is still very low, especially  
south of Big Sky.  We had traveled Targhee Pass a couple of weeks ago,  and 
there was 6 inches on the west side.  Of, course a couple of good  
snowstorms can turn it around, but as of now it is looking to be a very low snow  
year.
 
I haven't been in too much so that the guides can get as much work as  
possible, in these slow times.  With the cut in snowmobiles and the  economy, 
winter use in the park is rapidly drying up, and almost seems like it  is 
dying a slow death.
