Phil has over a decade of experience teaching tracking and is certified as Senior Tracker through Tracker Certification North America. Come learn to identify the track and sign of the many charismatic creatures who make their living in the Eastern Sierra. Location will be in the Bishop or Big Pine area. Exact meeting location will be emailed the Thursday before the workshop.This workshop is from 9am- 2:30pm. You will be on your feet for the entire time, often walking over uneven terrain. If you have concerns or questions- reach out to&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gena@eslt.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Please note:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;We have updated the pricing structure for our Wildlife Tracking Workshops in order to better reflect the true cost of offering the program and to ensure its long-term sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New pricing:<br>\u2022 Adult: $100<br>\u2022 Student \/ Wildlife or Environmental-Field Professional: $50<br>\u2022 Youth: $15 (must be accompanied by an adult)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our previous pricing structure ($40 adult \/ $15 youth) was intentionally kept low to make the program widely accessible. However, these rates no longer adequately cover the expenses involved in providing high-quality instruction and maintaining the standards of the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This updated pricing is much closer to current industry standards for professional tracking education and certification-based instruction. We remain committed to keeping the workshops as financially accessible as possible while also honoring the skill, experience, and professional qualifications of certified trackers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phil is a senior tracker with CyberTracker and a qualified Track &amp; Sign Evaluator. Phil is one of 14 Senior Trackers and Track and Sign Evaluators in North America.&nbsp; As part of an internationally recognized certification system, we believe it is important not to undervalue or undercut the expertise and standards established by certified tracking professionals worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These changes help ensure that we can continue offering high-quality wildlife tracking education in a way that is both accessible and sustainable for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Register&nbsp;<a
