Default RE: Deer Crossings...

Sorry BR but I don't think so. Travel patterns change with the seasons because food and cover sources change. During the open seasons deer are traveling from bedding areas to feeding areas, by the time rivers are frozen deer have changed their routines and are travelling from yarding areas to different food sources.
Crossings may be more consistant down south, but if your area gets cold winters the deer will change their habits/habitats to survive.
I'm not saying that your crossing won't be hot, but don't rely on seeing deer at a place in the fall just because you saw them there during another season. Try following the run to see if you can determine if it leads to something the deer might be interested in during hunting season.
