Also ive witnessed a big buck walk down a creek with a hard bottom and a have also found sheds in that same creek. Has anyone noticed deer use creeks/waterways to travel?

I have seen many bucks travel the upwind side of creeks, ditches, ponds, lakes, swamps, etc... It is a pattern I depend on for aerial scouting and going into properties blind. Much like what SB posted earlier in this thread about bucks using that barrier for downwind protection I believe, or perhaps they are just trying to scent the mainland in it's entirety, or both...
