Again today, we split into two
groups. Rather than a diary of what each group saw, this
page simply presents some of the highlights of each group's
explorations. One group found some very nice clear Fisher
tracks. |

This is a scent post of
wolves. Wolves commonly mark their territory with urine. |

Perhaps 6-8 wolves used this
same trail, stepping in each other's footprints. Following
these tracks, the group found they were the same pack of
wolves that were using the beds we found yesterday! |
