Hmm, After only seeing a few South Dakota Pales I'd have to agree w/ you, even Walt Deptula stated as much about South Dakota Pales years ago. "South Dakota animals, particularly those from the Black Hills territory, almost appear to be a different subspecies."
I think it will be interesting to see more of these South Dakota multistrata over the next few years to try and get a better handle on what is going on w/ them as they are quiet diffrent looking animals.
Now Montana Pales I'd have to disagree w/ you Brian. There are plenty of classic looking Pales found here that will rival any found in NE. You just haven't seen enough yet.
All field found Montana multistrata.
