Here in the high desert, at 5,000 feet elevation, it snows quite a bit in the winter (at least is seems like quite a lot to my Southern Self). The Walker Hounds used by the hunt club Red Rock Hounds still go hunting 3 to 4 times a week, even in the white stuff. Usually the only weather conditions that will cause the hunt to be canceled here is if the hills above the valley where the kennels are located have blizzard conditions. Blizzards mean that the huntsman for RRH, Angela Murray, MFH, can’t see her hounds. Or her own horse’s ears for that matter. In spite of this, Angela is still known to try to hunt in “almost” blizzard-like snow and wind while wearing ski goggles with her riding helmet. Angela, in my Southern opinion, is a bit touched to love the snow this much. But I digress…
