This is a shot from the road of two deer on their path across our field. These aren’t yearlings, they are adult mule deer. On the left side of this field, the snow comes to the top of the deer’s back.
Towards the middle of the field, the snow is still well above their belly. The deer have been working on this path all winter, and now the snow is deep it’s pretty impressive.
Here’s the same path from the other side of the field.. The three spots to the left is where a deer took three leaps through the snow. Here’s the same path closer up
The only difference between the walkways Sam makes and the paths the deer make is that they don’t use shovels.
