    My original thought, but it's hard to tell the exact size from the pic.

    Jweese, how long/wide are these? I'd say Fisher tracks are usually around 2.5 long 2 wide (inches) Maybe abit larger.

    To me what points to fisher is how far apart they are... And fishers almost never leave a clear track
    If people Concentrated on only the really important things in life, there'd be no shortage of fishing poles.

    If they are smaller, could be weasel.

    I would say your are getting closer, but they look too big for a weasel. Still think marten is the best bet (its in the weasel family). Its in between the weasel and fisher in size.

    Its appears to be fresh snow with a fresh track, so I dont think its been distorted by melt at all.

    For size comparison, this is a marten on the left and a fisher on the right. Fisher's are generally much bigger then people realize

    I saw a fisher up around that way once, it looked like a little bear as I flew past on my dune buggy.

    Marten makes sense to me. Saber,would that be a young/small fisher in the pic. The ones I have seen looked bigger ,just wondering.
