Are there any stats that help scouting/tracking?
Thanks.

I can see how scouting and perception apply but I'm not sure about agility. Is it a physical sucess or a mental success to see a trail or both?

When I suggested perhaps agility, I was thinking of how high agility seems to help with box skills. So, to scouting trails seemed to be a logical extension.
I know perception and scouting figure in. One of our number people will have to figure out the rest. ;)

I'm not sure how much agility playing any role in success or not. I haven't done that much testing on it. Scouting skill, however, does seems to play a bit of a role in speed of the trail.
Stamina however plays a bit of a role. Encumberance makes a big impact on the speed of a trail run, and the runs also cause considerable amounts of fatigue by the end. The longer the trail, the more fatigue. I've had people in my group not make it through because they fatigued out, mid run.

So for things affecting we have scouting, perception, encumbrance, agility maybe, and stamina to combat the fatigue of using trails. Does removing armor help like it does with stealing? I assume that wounds will also hinder tracking. If agility is factor like it is in boxes, does that mean eye wounds would hinder more?

<<I assume that wounds will also hinder tracking.>>
Yes, wounds affect it as well.
Basically this is the breakdown that I've noticed based on my experiences.
Perception: Helps spot trail markers.
Scouting: Determines how adept you are at running the trail. Affects speed.
Encumberance: Affects speed. May prevent you from running a trail.
Stamina: Affects fatiguing. May prevent you from finishing a trail.
Wounds: May prevent you from running a trail. May affect speed as well??
Agility: Not quite sure if this is considered an agility based feat.
