Wow, crazy warm weather for December in North Dakota! Sounds like you had a great trip.
Here's a couple pics from our trip over Thanksgiving. We had snow and temps from -5 to +35, with wind every other day it seemed. Good #s of birds, some days I had a limit of pheasant shot over points before 10! Other days we worked to get limits for the 2 of us before dark. There were lots of birds on the PLOTS areas, you could have hunted only public access areas and done just fine this year. The second pic is my 12 Year old GWP on point. I would save an hour to hunt with her every day and she not only pointed but found cripples in thick cattails. She still wants to go go go, and whines and cries when we leave her behind!
