We walk and run on a dirt road that is a mix of sand and clay, semi hilly. It's a great place to track as your walking and chit chatting with the family.
We regularly see deer, dog, cow, snake, turtle, bird, raccoon and other animals. Since it's a rural area, often times nefarious types (lots of meth heads in the area) are out and about. Always interesting to see human tracks near vehicle tracks in areas no one lives. It's playing detective checking everything and trying to ascertain are they women or men, how long ago this happened, WTH they were actually doing, etc. One interesting thing one time was what seemed like a middle of the backwoods roads domestic dispute. The vehicle seemed to abruptly stop near a large open area that some meth heads have been found hanging out before (NV and Thermal is awesome LOL). The woman seemed to walk off away from the road in a slight hurry then came back (circle around). We cut sign up from her last tracks before turning back thinking we missed something. The guy seemed to have gotten out of the car also, started to head her direction but didn't go far. I'm guessing there was a light disagreement in the car. Little bit of spin out when they left to, so someone was still pissed LOL.
Where the car first stopped and tracks appeared I figured someone got out to take a pee (happens all the time along country roads lol). Never found any indication of that though- two legs close together, wet spot or two legs wide for a squat.
Each track is like a puzzle piece that tells a bit of the story.
