Lonesome for Wilderness: Tracking and Trailing in Forest, Desert, or Your Own Back Yard

Professional wilderness tracker Hunter (Lonesome for Bears) has trekked through wild areas on her own, guided groups on bear sighting expeditions, helped search for missing people in dangerous areas, and more. Her book teaches readers that there is nothing as valuable as being still and taking in their surroundings. In nature, taking the time to be observant can be the difference between seeing something spectacular or missing a special sight. For readers curious about how tracking works and what they can gain from training, Hunter’s book offers wonderful, vividly described stories that indicate the skill sets required to successfully decipher the mysteries of what has gone on before they arrive at a stream or cliffside. This book offers frank facts about what one may encounter in the wilderness, and it gives plenty of resources for additional learning about tracking and enjoying the wilderness in ways that most readers have probably never pondered.
