This year, October arrived with summer far in the rear view mirror. Fall has already splashed yellow across the hills, and the snowline creeps further down the mountains every time it rains. The crews are still out, re-visiting sites they set up back when the bushes were budding. This shift is a blitz of the sites within a few hours drive of Hinton for the ungulate density project, gathering the summer data and making sure everything is ready for the winter.
