In Scats and Tracks of the Rocky Mountains, we focus on the biogeographic region from Colorado to Montana to the Canadian Rockies, with details about the region’s most common or characteristic species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. Each species is described with concisely worded yet detailed information, easily accessible by fast and easy navigation. Simple to use and intuitively designed, field-friendly and richly illustrated, this app is the key to starting off your outing on the right track!

Don't just step past those animal signs on the trail. Those are scats and tracks and they have a story to tell. In FalconGuides’ Scats and Tracks of the Rocky Mountains, Dr. Jim Halfpenny, a nationally renowned tracker, teaches you how to decipher these messages. Was that footprint left by a fox, a mountain lion, or a wolf? Was that pile of droppings deposited by a moose, a mouse, or a marten? For a deeper understanding of the Rocky Mountain woods and wilderness, this app will prove indispensable.

This incomparable reference also includes a few rare species of particular interest or significance in this region. For example, what a coup it would be to document a Canada lynx in your favorite hiking area!
