Thinking about the math though, wouldn't that put Trask somewhere totally different, since Clark could be way further away. Or did they start at the theoretical end point when they found him missing, and then work back toward the base?
Of course, Clark could either be further away than the Kents, or possibly closer to B39 if he stopped and laid low. But they would probably know at least some of Clark's thought processes, since they trained him. So he would want to get away from B39, not stop when close by. He would be trained to not leave a trail, so he probably would have holed up someplace while it snowed. And patrols around the B39 compound would give them a time frame of when he escaped, since the would know that Jenson last saw him at, say 6pm, and the guards found him missing at 9pm.
