Is this a Buck Bed? See pics...

Unread postby BCO » Wed Jan 06, 2016 4:06 pm

Came across what I think may be a buck bed. Its located on a finger in a dry creek bed. Dry creek is about 10 feet deep and the finger is sloped about 60 degrees all around. Two light trails leaving from bed...one goes left the other goes right. Moderate trail from bed extending out of the finger going uphill. Pic 1 is the rub going into the finger. Pic 2 rub going out of the finger. Pic 1 and 2 is same tree about 15 yards from bed. Pic 3 is looking down the finger notice log on left and dense back cover on right. Pic 4 is standing on end of finger (left side of pic 3) looking into suspected bed. I think he beds with dense cover to back and that log to left, which would put the log between him and the entry/exit trail. Take a look...what do you think???

Looks like a bed to me... But I would question how much, or when its being used.

No, I didn't see any hair in the bed. Would there be hair in the bed during winter? I figured maybe that you would find hair during season changes like during spring and fall? I am new to looking at beds so don't really know what a "good" bed should contain.
