Many tales of adventure and intrigue tell how a prisoner, being led away by the enemy, manages to leave little signs behind to show his friends where he has been taken.
Similarly, scouts investigating a route far in advance of their troops leave certain signs to direct those following them along the right path.
When you are marking your own trail through woods or field, don't make it obvious by leaving behind scraps of paper. Any greenhorn could read a trail like that, and forest rangers are not very pleased with people who scatter paper around. Your signs should be completely inconspicuous, blending into the surrounding
region, and they should be made of materials found in the immediate vicinity: stones, twigs and so forth.
Of course, following such a trail demands close observation. But then you are also sure that those who are not in on the secret will go by without paying attention.
