20 January 2010 <br /> Ron Moorse <br /> City of Arden Hills <br /> 1245 West Hwy 96 <br /> Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br /> Dear Mr. Moorse: <br /> Enclosed please find the survey maps for the recent aerial deer survey conducted in Ramsey <br /> County. Surveys were flown on January 5, 12 and 18 under good survey conditions. There was <br /> a good 10 inch base of snow and experienced helicopter pilots. My confidence level in seeing <br /> deer was good for this survey, but reported numbers should be considered a minimum population <br /> for the area. Deer numbers varied from previous surveys,but this may be attributed to the <br /> Christmas snowstorm and extreme cold during the end of December and early January. These <br /> weather conditions may have altered the deer habitat use patterns. The enclosed map shows the <br /> location of the deer. <br /> There were 107 deer seen in Arden Hills. The majority of which were in the AHATSITCAAP <br /> property. The enclosed map shows the location of the deer. <br /> You will be billed for 1 hour of helicopter time from Complete Helicopter from Anoka Airport at <br /> a rate of$285.00 per hour. - <br /> If you have any other questions on your deer or deer management options feel free to give me a <br /> call at 748-2500. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> John J. Moriarty <br /> Natural Resources Manager <br /> enclosures <br /> 2010 deer survey <br />
