RE:re re drilling
They are acquiring new area projects. For example they just acquired a property next to the Milligan mine. I'm sure they will be looking at exploration targets for this year and examining any historical data right in the next few months.

As far as field work, you are right in that they have to wait for the snow to melt. Not much can be done. However the lack of market interest in the near team should afford more buying opportunities.
Also, one needs to realize that it's not a "hold everything or sell everything" strategy that most investors here employ, or at least I would hope. I see some posts that ask questions like "did you get out in time?". That is called market timing and it rarely works for most people. Nothing wrong with selling a portain of one's shares when the stock rises quickly to lock in gains and buying back in lower. But that's the difference between quick traders versus those holding a base position here for the next two to three years to see how the story unfolds - I am in the latter category.
