This area along the Mn/ ND border is extremely flat,open country.
There are various tributaries that flow into the Red River. However, seems every year, once the crops get going, the bigger bucks will often abandoned the riverbottoms and head out miles away and summer in the many remote drainage ditches.
Here's a common looking one I took a pic of this morning calling coyotes.
They have good food, wind (bugs), water and seclusion.
These waterways once again become hotshots during breeding.
Older bucks will push a hot doe for miles and bed her down in them.
Years ago, when I gun hunted, these ditches were on of my big groups staples for jump shooting bucks. We'd walk the for many miles. This ditch runs about 9 miles with only 1 house close to it.
The one pic is just to show how flat it is around here.

The bucks find a small pothole in a corn field and hang around until that corn in picked. Tree lines, cattail sloughs, CRP.
