Or, just for the sake of argument, you're not nearly as skilled at recognizing sign as you give yourself credit for and it's been right under your nose all along. There's a learning curve. Nobody starts at the top. People who assume they do never get there at all. Rather than learn to see for themselves they dismiss what others have learned to see. MIB

I have been thinking about high end gear and wanted to start a thread on what gear is best for field research like what pieces of equipment are worthe the heavy investment. For instance, this field data collecting watch. > http://www.casio.com/products/Watches/PRO_TREK/PAW1500T-7V/ There are lower end models that have alot of the features this one does that are even around the 35 to 55 dollar range. Feel free to throw out some ideas on gear you think is a must when out researching.

If you are smoking in the woods there's really no need for any of the scent-free hassle, just watch the wind direction. I have taken pictures of myself with my trailcams with my gear on. I have a camo fleece jacket that shows up white, with no pattern, in IR light. So much for camo. I wear it because it's comfortable. The wind and movement are either your best friends or enemies in the woods. More to the original post. I remember reading in Robert Pyle's book where Bigfoot Walks, his mentioning trying out his birthday suit in the woods. But he did it for his own experience. Although who knows what might have been watching.
