The same general area being specifically where? Cheyenne or Casper? I am hunting the Big Horn Basin. We are subject to an occasional "blow" that last ten or less minutes with gusts to 30mph. You can see that weather coming for miles and have time to batten down the hatches. The norm is 5-10 on a "windy" day.

If you and your family find it best not to hunt your area with the 250, I would not dissuade you from that course.
