''The winter of 1871 was pleasant and
open like the present. Freighters
hauled to Bismarck until March when

wagons to Fl. Totten and 81 and '82
were open winters. But I think this is
the longest period of pleasant winter

my experience is that when a winter
starts in and remains pleasant into Jan

during the entire season. There may be
a blizzard or two in February or March,
but no long sever weather"
