Description:

Join us for fun-filled mornings of community learning as we see into the lives of wild animals through the tracks they leave behind. You can never be sure what cast of characters will have been playing: elk, otter, coyote, bobcat, bear, cougar...

At Tracking Club, participants are led by skillful naturalist instructors into a world of mystery and intrigue that we call tracking. Learn animal track identification, aging, interpretation and much more.

The whole experience is designed to inspire curiosity and give you the tools needed to track with confidence on your own, and to share the joys of tracking with others.

You are welcome to join us for a day or to become a tracking club member (see below).
