I've always wondered what deer, elk and moose are thinking when they come to a big body of water like BL and decide they are going to swim across it. I'm sure they have no way to reason that they can walk around but it makes me wonder if they have ever crossed a certain body of water before. Maybe it is just a route they follow every year and know it because they have done it before but either way that has got to be a long swim. How many miles do you think it is from the East side of BL to the West side at that point? It must take them at least an hour or two to swim that far. I've seen deer and elk swimming at Strawberry before but no distance that is as far as that moose is swimming.
