 Bob-KF6VSE detected a very small, wide signal coming from the East and Rich-KN6FW (the Fox), verified he was East of the start point. We shared this information and all headed east.

The fox was not heard again, until we were within 1.2 miles of it. This was truly a follow your initial bearing hunt (faith and drive).

I missed the closest exit but, was able to verify the Fox was North of Hwy.580 and probably on 'Altamont Pass' road, by virtue of my Doppler.

Notice the small handie-talkie Fox transmitter in the front shirt pocket of the sitting alien.
