December 1tracking

 Set the track between three and 330 let it sit for over an hour before we tracked. It was around 40° And dusk when we finished. I thought for a change of pace from the usual parks and fields we go to I knew Zane would enjoy a day of Tracking in the woods. The track started out like a large rectangle then turn to the left and then  a right like a huge box going through the woods finishing up going through an open field then turning back into the woods. The track was approximately 900 yards long Zane had no problem I on the other hand tried to video but lost the camera several times due to branches. Zane found the wallet in the leaves it as dusk  had settled in,  I new the wallet was there even though I could no longer see it there. We had a big celebration and Zane wanted to keep going but I was more than done and I could feel it the next day. I had put flagging tape with clothes pins on the branches through the trail and he stayed right on it the whole time a fun time was had. Back to the open fields for our next tracking day.

As we went down the line and got to the next turn he made a huge arc in the opposite direction of the turn and we ended up back where the article w...
