To cook chert you wanna work them down a little first to where there no more than around an inch thick or thinner. Bury them in sandy dirt about three inches, walk it down firm then build a fire on top for the better part of a day. Let that cool off for a couple days and voila!
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.
