Good point on the travel patterns. However, our creeks are deep which makes crossing them with a truck or atv impossible but game can still travel the inside edges of these heavily treed creeks without a problem. My challenge is getting around the property since i can't make it through the creeks, which surround our property. Using chest waders may help in some cases so i may try that. We have gators, but not tons on my property. I still worry about them when cutting across a creek with chest waders and water up to my chest (at 5am in the dark).

Oh well, will need to work extra hard this season.
