Tracking Basics
We are surrounded by wildlife, though their secretive ways often keep them hidden from us. Tracking opens up the mysteries of nature, allowing us to expand our awareness deeper into the natural world. In this workshop, participants will learn to see debris compressions, analyze gaits, learn the wonders of sign tracking, and learn several awareness expanding practices.
