While my memory sorta functioning, think a 1000ft also kinda equals 3 degrees. Not a carved in stone thing. Weather never is.

That's scary, most of us here have Skeeters disease ! Some of us have Elmer-itus too ! Ok, so if the skeeter population climbs drastically and/or they have a new different disease to pass ? Could be, I guess. Two worst places I've been, skeeter-wise were the Assateague Island with it's salt marshes and the Wind River Range in the last of the timber before breaking out above. Altitude =latitude sorta. For temps and flora and some fauna, think the ole rule of thumb is 1000ft higher like a 100 miles further north. Does seem like in places with shorter seasons, the skeeters are more viscious and desparate ! Ya'done lost me, Steve....? I seeya got ur thumb out. Where you hitchin to? LOL Keep the bulldog handy in the non-hitchin hand! BB44

The bag limit can be 5 Caribou a day but I would think there's probably 361 days a year that you don't see a caribou within rifle range. I know for upland game - some days I limit out, most days I don't. the bag limit is five per day, but NORTH of the arctic circle. and most of the year you wouldn't see any to shoot. you can only transport a limited number home if you live south of the arctic circle. and there are limits to number in possession etc. even north of the arctic circle. most caribou live their entire lives without seeing a human being. the herds constantly shift populations from one to another. so a herd that numbers 80,000 may plummet to a fraction of that number in a matter of years but those caribou have drifted into other herds whose number is now greater. biologists say this preserves areas from over grazing by the animals and has been occurring forever. the total numbers generally stay pretty stable up here....not sure about the rest of the world. the greenies of course use the decrease of any given herd to raise alarms that the end is near.
