The report records deer counts in Canyon and Elbow areas with 605 total deer counted previously and 69 killed by vehicles and other causes this year. It notes heavy dog predation and overutilization of range with animals moving to higher hills due to weather, along with a need for heavier harvest to manage the range and prevent further losses. Nearby social notes mention dinner guests in Montpelier.
