The large 3 pt [point] marked * was actively
running one of the does + the 4 pt [point]
was evidently running the doe
he accompanied but for the
most part the rut seemed over.
Deer were comparatively tame + it
was easy to approach within 75

precaution. The light wind +
moist air seemed to prevent scenting
+ most deer stopped soon after
their visual alarm had induced
flight.
