    As a professional tracker trained by old timers and Chickasaw of Appalachia. I wanted to say thanks for doing a surprisingly good job on this. I was expecting some whimsical way out there stuff. This is a good place to start. Want to tell people a few tricks as well.
    Stay away from pungent scented things like detergents, foods, and washing products for baths.
    Not because it scents you but because it prevents you from scenting other things. You can smell when something has passed by the scent of the area not necessarily by smelling the person or etc but dirt, insects, plants etc. If you ever have to track anything wash yourself and cloths in heavy borax it will also cause your ability to smell to increase a lot. You don't have to invest in much to be a decent tracker other than time patience and acclimation to the surroundings. The biggest piece of advice is be in touch with mother nature. Everyone has individual techniques learn where you are weak, and don't get over confident when you think your strong. Or you will be the one being tracked.

    You made the point several times of 'wind-smell', as have a few others here...but in my personal experience of over 40-years of wilderness activities (hunting, camping, trails-hiking, even SAR for local authorities), the human sense of smell is so terrible and natural scents usually so subtle, it is FAR MORE POWERFUL to focus on sounds, and the lack of them, to help you in tracking. Often, if someone has been through an area recently, wildlife will have left the area...some wildlife are far more sensitive to human presence than others (lynx, bobcat, cougar, etc.)...and birds-disturbed can show paths that you cannot see, as well. Audio is a KEY sense that MOST trackers often overlook if 'school-trained'...
    Also, as a former Marine myself, I often have told the story of spending 30-days in the 'back of Camp Lejeune'...our unit was out, across the 'bridge' for a month...and didn't really think anything about it, other than being glad to come back in...and we arrived right at lunch time, so we marched up to the chow hall (near the front gate), staged, and started to go inside...but the Mess Sergeant said ABSOLUTELY NOT! Your platoon smells LIKE PIGS! Get them bathed, come back for dinner mess! An argument ensued, we WERE let in (to prevent drawing more MREs) and we had to actually serve ourselves...some were gagging, we smelled so bad. The moral of this story? Whether it is cigarette smoke or just RANCID SWEAT, you STINK...and if I am clean, I WILL smell you at close range (destroying your camouflage at close distances). STAY CLEAN and SCENT FREE in the wilds...and to this point, the BEST thing I've ever found has been a simple, unscented bar of soap and a homemade mix of 10:1 corn starch and baking soda...just throw it in a ziploc, shake it, put it on after bathing/showering then put clean clothes on...it will make you 'stay nearly scentless' all day...

      Actually that is incorrect, the human sense of smell is highly UNDERmined because we generally don't use it the way like a dog would. However, if you train your nose to track you can absolutely do that.
      Your sense of smell even has a deep impact on how you taste food, think about that!

    The two types of tracking are 1. Visual and 2. Scent (Dogs).
    The principals don’t change in a combat environment, you just have to take into consideration security and enemy tactics. What you described was a “Likely area search” which is relevant to animals too.

While longer strides can also be attributed to running or moving quickly, there are different indicators on footprints that differentiate between someone running and someone walking. For instance, the heel is going to be jammed in versus a steady roll like at a walking pace; among another things.

    Good advice . If you walk the same path regularly ,step in your own previous tracks. Even on the return journey , it is an old Indian trick to confuse trackers . Also when moving in groups ,if everybody man woman ect step in the same track as the person in front ,it also conceals info trackers are reading, and makes it harder for them to read your tracks :)

      All joking aside I've really wondered why a tracker hasn't done that. If they are supposed to be in the 1000-1200lbs range it would be very hard not to leave sign. There are some very good man trackers out there that its damn near impossible to lose them. So I'd think a professional man tracker wouldn't have a hard time tracking one.

    Pretty good. Also instinct and listening to your surroundings, especially for birds. See if they're following you, if they are, try following them and see where they take you. Could lead you to water, food, campsites and other interesting places. Just don't get to caught up on it if you don't know what you're looking for or don't have patience. I remember collecting sweetgrass in a small patch, this bird kept chirping, so I said "okay. Show me" (cree) followed for about 100 yards and there was this beautiful untouched patch of long (3'+) silver sweet grass the roots were deep purple.
