-
 
-
Tracking- used to detect the path of someone or something.
 
-
When tracking you must be able to interpret clues.
 
-
Underutilized.

Area
 
-
1 hour 2 miles 12.6 sq miles
 
-
2 hours 4 miles 50.3 sq miles
 
-
3 hours Six miles 113.1 sq miles
 
-
Management can use direction of travel to eliminate a large search area.
 
-
Definitions
 
-
Track or print- an impression left from a person that can be positively
 
-
identified as being human.
 
-
Complete track- a track is entirely visible. Positive. Conclusively
 
-
human.
 
-
Partial track- it is not visible in its entirety; and/or identifiable.
 
-
Corroborative.
 
-
Sign- is any evidence of change from the natural state that is inflicted on
 
-
an environment by a person's passage.
 
-
Sign cutting- looking for sign to establish a starting point from which to
 
-
track.
 
-
Jump Tracking- form of tracking that involves finding a big obvious
 
-
footprint, then proceeding along the presumed direction of travel until
 
-
another obvious track is found.
 
-
Step by step- to proceed no further than the last visible track using
 
-
stride to determine where the next step should be.

-
Strategy
 
-
Do not allow anyone into the sign cutting area
 
-
Cut each area with the same care as the first
 
-
Use good maps
 
-
Check track traps
 
-
Only experienced trackers should investigate the area
 
-
Get as much info about the subject as possible
 
-
Preserve evidence
 
-
Hazardous areas or attractants are good places to look for sign
 
-
Establish a perimeter.
 
-
Talk to everyone you see for info
 
-
Look for clues
 
-
Use the step by step.
