Just curious if any of you beast members hunt mountanous terrain? Where I hunt down south I've found that as the deer season progresses during late season the deer bed at the very top right under the bluff with the steep rock bluff to their back looking down and using the rising thermals to smell danger from below. I've killed several bucks by sneaking up to the edge and killing them in their beds. (Gun) Curious if anybody else uses this tactic or witnessed deer bed this way. Thanks

Re: buck/doe beds
I have seen that work in Western Wisconsins rocky bluffs. But often there is a wind from behind that rolls down to the buck, in that case coming in on an angle would work.

Re: buck/doe beds
This was my first year out scouting and jumped a buck after season, bedded in the same type of area. all the sides were almost straight up except for a small creek that came down the east facing slope. I followed the creek to a staging area and oak trees.
