Rockchucks and Ground Squirrels in Washington
« on: February 26, 2005, 08:56:06 PM »
Anybody know when we should start seeing these little suckers coming out?  I have my .17HMR all sighted in for the ground squirrels, and I am working on a .223 load for the 'chucks.  I am very eager to get out there and do some varmint hunting, but I am unsure of when their hibernation period ends.  Will the unusually warm weather we have been having bring them out earlier, or will they come out when there is more vegetation to eat?  Anyone got any info they care to share?
Thanks,
Loki
