A fresh track?! This could be excellent news. A traveling companion creates safety in numbers. I stand from the shrub and look in the direction the track takes. The stars are out and the first blush of morning is on the eastern horizon, but it's dark enough that if they're hiding, they'll be hard to spot.
Can I find this other traveler? Anyone should answer.
As you consider this, a light flares in the darkness about a hundred yards away. It dims down to a red coal, about head-height, then moves downward, deliberately.
Whoever they are, they aren't afraid to be seen. Or smelled. They're smoking.
