I found moose tracks and blood drips so I started following them backwards and found a bed with a bunch of blood where the head laid and then drops on the trail leading to it so I kept following but now have found an area with tracks everywhere and no blood drips for about 100-200 yards down the trail. Did I pass the sheds already, was the blood leading up to the sheds, I’m so lost right now. Haha I thought for sure just before that bed I’d find the sheds. I’m back tracking now and somehow have service on this mountain.

Decent chance its a cut on leg leaving the blood. But could be from a pedicle too! I would lean towards already shed at the point of the blood...

Yeah id bet bloody leg too. And the odds of a moose packing into march are incredibly slim from what ive seen. Ive seen them drop as early as november. Heres a lopsided bull from dec 14th this last season.

Yeah I tracked it back and forth quite a few times and it’s gotta be a neck/leg cut. I say neck because I found some blood wiped on a limb pretty high. Found a great moose/deer spot though tracking it up and over the mountain. Gonna go back in and hang a trail camera.
