Ten of our SAR members are Tracker I status with Universal Tracking Service
out of Oregon. One of those instructors tracks frequently from horseback.
Please send me the Mounted SAR article in Perfect horse. Samuel Peery

=========
If anyone is interested in being NV POST certified as a Mounted Tracker,
that class is available. It was offered at SAR City (Barstow, CA
www.sarcity.org ) a few weeks ago, and was excellent. We took some riders
with no tracking training, started them in Mounted Tracking Aware on Friday
night, and at NOON on Saturday they were successfully tracking in the hard,
dry desert ... from the saddle.
Fernando will be returning next year to teach Mounted Tracking again at SAR
City. (Friday evening through Sunday noon.) He is also available to teach
clinics. http://searchandrescuetrackers.com/
