Boundary Search and Dive Rescue Team hosted a
one day tracking class over Labor Day weekend.
The course, taught by certified tracking
instructor Matt Isch, provided members of
Boundary Search and Dive Rescue Team along with
a few from South Boundary Fire District,
Paradise Valley Fire and the Sheriffs Posse with
skills to aid in following tracks.
The field portion involved a lot of time down on
the knees looking for track clues, like bruised
or crushed vegetation, stride length, broken
twigs.
At the end of the day all of the teams had
learned enough of the basic skills that allowed
them to locate and follow tracks under
conditions that would not seem possible. |
