Der Wahrheit auf der Spur. Tracking ist eine Kunst und gleichzeitig eine Wissenschaft.
Spuren lesen, sie verstehen und verfolgen, ist eine Technik, die seit tausenden von Jahren genutzt wird. Doch obwohl kaum noch jemand im Wald den Fährten von Tieren oder Menschen nachspüren kann, bleibt Spurenlesen bis heute von größter Bedeutung. Die Geschichte des Tracking, Grundlagen und Techniken des Spurenlesens, Mantracking: Nachschau nach Menschen, Spuren in der Stadt, Abwehr gegen Spurensucher, die dich verfolgen. „Tracking“ von Kyt Lyn Walken vermittelt die Grundlagen für das Erlernen des Spurenlesens. Was sehen wir am Boden? Was sagen uns geknickte Zweige oder verlegte Steine? Wie deuten wir alles? Mit den Grundlagen beginnend wird hier erklärt, auf was ein Scout beim Lesen von Spuren achten muss, was seine Werkzeuge sind.
