Tracking signs are a great way to communicate to other groups on an outdoor adventure! Simply by laying down sticks or rocks in a particular way, we can tell others which direction we’ve gone, what dangers are ahead and when we’ve gone home.

These patterns will not look the same according to the materials used. In most scenarios when hiking, to show the team or to find back home: the main hiker or one person break a branch and hang so that they can find the way back home easily with the hung branch.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://badgework.prepscouts.lk/junior-scouts/national-scout-membership-badge/woodcraft-signs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
