When do you need to take winter conditions seriously on mountain roads?
Okay so about ten minutes before first light, I'm stopped by the side of the road overlooking a bowl with some clearcuts I intend to glass.

Plan is to drive up some rough ( I believe dirt) roads to around 6500 feet in California for a deer / bear backpack hunt.

Scopecoat for SWFA 3-15x42?
Does anyone know the best Scopecoat size for the SWFA 3-15x42? I purchased a different neoprene cover that seemed like it would fit but didn't come close due to the tall turret.
