The only expected Mustelids here are Long-tailed and Short-tailed Weasels, and Mink. These tracks are certainly too big for the weasel and to me, seem too big for an American Mink.

In the end I've come to the conclusion these are the tracks of a large male mink.

A couple of days earlier I saw a long, reddish black animal double the size of a squirrel (or so) running through the course towards the trees. I am fairly sure it was a polecat (Mustela putorius) and the tracks fit the pictures I found on the internet. What do you think?
