Early Season water sources

I am looking at a few places that I have scouted/hunted in the past, for the high hunt, and WATER keeps coming to mind...
With a very dry summer, and many sources drying up, will you be hunting around lakes, or does it make that big of a difference?

A big buck will travel along ways for water, I wouldn't change your plans too much. I'm worried more about water for myself

Kind of what I figured...
Thanks Zwickey
Now I'm stressing out about carrying 20lb of water with me! Haha

Lets just theorize here....
Think they're more likely to go UP to a high mountain lake for water, or DOWN to, say, a basin stream?

I've seen big bucks travel down for water, then right back up to the top. I guess it just depends on where the water is.
