That just makes it more confusing for me because I figured the daytime bedding would be in the upper part of the elevation. I would assume this is because the thermal tunnel for that day had changed?
I may be off a little in my estimate of the elevation. But not by much. He was on a secondary point, off of the main point from the ridge. Ridge runs E-W, primary point runs N-S, this subtle point he was on runs SE-NW. He was definitely in the middle half to lower 1/3 of the elevation from the crest of the main ridge. I found his bed, after I jumped him, and found his tracks in the mud. They were wider than a .243 cartridge, (was carrying a gun after having hogs on my trail camera). But as to why he was bedded here, your guess is as good as mine. I'm new to all of this and still trying to wrap my feeble mind around it haha.
