Overview

Maybe you've seen people on TV "track" humans through the woods by following invisible clues. It's a lot harder than TV makes it look! With this honor you can learn to see and interpret sign left by wildlife (and by humans), and make a collection of plaster castings of animal tracks. Open your eyes to another world!

Investiture Achievement Connection: This Honor is related to the Investiture Achievement requirements for Companion Nature Study which require "Make plaster casts of three different animal tracks". This Honor is a popular choice for the Level 1 Nature Honor required of Trail Companions.
