01-31-2018 HARE ON THE HIGH PLATEAU


SEARCHING FOR SNOWSHOE HARE ON THE HIGH PLATEAU OF THE ALLEGHENY.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 31, 2018

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY ON THE ALLEGHENY!

What a great day it was to be out on the high plateau. The beagles had a great day. Scenting conditions could not have been better. The hounds chased the illusive, majestic and omnipotent snowshoe hare for five (5) continuous hours without a break.

All hunters enjoyed several "Tally Ho"s, a.k.a. sightings, and enjoyed a great day.

We captured two snowshoe hare on video which is presented here for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

On the first video below, the hare stops behind a tree which can be seen on the video if you watch closely. The the hare turns and runs down through the cover with the beagles not far behind.

Below: The beagles eventually find the check and continue the hunt. This blog only allows a 100mb video so I couldn't go to the end.

Below: The Captain says, "That Sammie is relentless." In case you didn't hear.


The Big Woods Hare Hunters have been having a great winter.
