Hunters often find BP hides by looking for trails leading into holes, and entries that are 'smooth'... that implies that snakes do move around at night a lot.

That hardly implies that they move around a lot or what time of day. It means that a snake is inhabiting that burrow, and moves in and out of the hide entrance. It reveals nothing other than that a snake is using it. It is by no means conclusive of how far or how often that snake moves about.
