​Author: Teri Lysak, Tracking Leader with the Wolverine Tracking Project
We recently shared some tips for where to look for tracks in your neighborhood. However, you don't need to wait for snow or seek out mud - you can easily build a tracking station for your yard, porch, or patio!
A tracking station is simple, and consists of a track plate, fine powder like charcoal to put on the track plate, a cover to protect the plate from the elements, and (optional) bait to entice animals to visit.

Click "Read More" below to see how you can build one!
