Q: what's the typical temp range early am for february duck hunts and how often does it really drop hard
February in Argentina, particularly in the region where AWS Lodge is located, marks late summer transitioning into early autumn. Please note AWS Lodge does not offer Duck hunts in February — Duck sessions run only through our confirmed Mixed Bag program during the normal season, generally mid-May to mid-August; February trips are exclusively our High-Volume Dove program. For reference, for early morning Duck hunts in season, you can typically expect temperatures to range from around 50-65°F (10-18°C).
While the days are generally warm, mornings can certainly have a crisp chill just before sunrise, making layers essential. It's not common for temperatures to "drop hard" into freezing or near-freezing conditions during February, as it's still considered a warm season. However, weather patterns can always shift, and a cooler front might occasionally pass through, so being prepared with appropriate gear is always a good idea.
*(AWS Expert Note: Please be aware that our Mixed Bag programs, including Duck and Perdiz hunting, strictly run during the Argentine winter from mid-May to mid-August. For trips in February, we exclusively offer our world-renowned High-Volume Dove program, which is spectacular year-round!)*
