Start Where You Know: The Last Known Point

View show details

When someone disappears in the wilderness, the search doesn’t begin with guessing where they might be—it begins with establishing where they were last reliably known to be. In this episode of The Tracker’s Mind, we use a real Rocky Mountain National Park search to explore how time, terrain, weather, intended route, and human behavior shape the opening stages of a search. You’ll learn why protecting the last known point can preserve information that otherwise disappears beneath the boots of searchers. And you’ll learn a simple tracking principle: separate what you know from where you think the missing person went.
