RAIN AND SNOW

Typically we get very little rain throughout the fall hunting season, however we can count on at least 2 or 3 rainy day hunts throughout September and October. Prairie Limits Outfitters always hunt rain or shine, so come prepared to weather some rain if need be. There is always a chance of snow in Canada, particularly in the latter part of October so come prepared to hunt in below freezing temperatures.

​

HOW TO DRESS FOR THE WEATHER

A high quality, moisture wicking long underwear is a must for every hunter, we highly recommend wearing two layers of clothing for typical hunting conditions and bringing a third outer layer for those extra cold, frosty mornings. Bringing a baseball style cap as well as a beanie will keep you covered in both hot and cold conditions. Footwear is critical in the cold as laying in a goose blind for an extended period of time can cause toes to freeze, if you do not want to bring two sets of footwear a good idea is to bring an extra pair of heavy socks or heat packs to add to the boots if needed. Having a small backpack or blind bag with you helps when you need to add or remove layers.
