Most successful snowshoe hare hunters are going to be using dogs. Just walking on my own and trying I only ever got one but it was a ton of fun. I had most luck finding them in swail grass and cedar areas on the edge of bogs. The thicker the cover, that’s where they will be. If the snow is crunchy, forget about it. Naturally, their hearing is excellent. I saw the most hares when the snow was soft for walking and actually if it’s snowing I think that little bit of static or white noise gave me auditory cover. I couldn’t believe how big the one I finally harvested was.
