Wildlife club members feeding deer during snowstorm

Description

Members of the Haywood County Wildlife Club spent two full days in freezing temperatures and deep snow to feed starving deer during a prolonged winter storm. Pictured in this 1960 March photograph, is a road cleared by volunteer Lindsey Rogers, a veteran bulldozer operator. Rogers spent three days pushing snow and ice from roads so jeeps and trucks could haul food for the deer into such areas as Fire Scald, Shining Rock, Windy Gap, Dark Prong and other sections.
