Default whitetail rut

I am sure somebody started a thread about this before,but my question is:
When is/was the wt rut in southern Alberta?
I might get 4 different answers.
a) about november 10-november 20
b) 3 days between nov 10 and 20 (peak rut)
c) last 2 weeks of november
d) the whole month of november
Curious about your opinion.

Southern Alberta prairie whitetails offer a unique prospective on the rut. You can see it happening before your eyes.

I watched a buck chasing does two weeks ago, yesterday I saw the same bunch and I'd say the rut was over
