Frosty
Jackrabbits are considered hares, which do not typically use burrows like cottontails and pypmy rabbits. They are mostly nocturnal and lay in "forms" or depressions in the snow or soil during the day. Their fur changes to mostly white in the winter months, making them nearly invisible in the snow. When the overnight fog cleared on this cold morning, hoar frost could be seen clinging to this white-tailed jackrabbits fur and whiskers.
