While I'd love to have your blind for deer season, I can't let this go unchallenged

I don't think it gets to -30ยบ F. in NM does it? Ever have to walk on snow shoes in 3' level snow with 6' drifts? Maybe mountains?
Wisconsin - Highest point Timms Hill 1,951 ft (595 m)
New Mexico - Lowest point Red Bluff Reservoir 2,844 ft (867 m)

Our altitude mean as a state is 5700 feet, aka mile high, so a lot of New Mexico is mountain, gets a lot of snow, and gets cold. So mostly we're lucky for deer season as we typically don't get much early snow. Having said that, this year the northern areas had solid snow cover by Nov. 1st.
