Are Almanac page paths predetermined

assassins-creed-3

So far, I have had absolutely zero luck catching a single Almanac Page in Assassin's Creed 3. Every time I start to chase one, I am immediately met with a pop-up stating:

"The Almanac page is lost. Come back later and try again."

… or something to that effect, anyway. I just can't seem to catch the pesky things!

Is there a predetermined path that I can learn for these pages, or are they randomly generated? I've tried watching a few, but with them disappearing so quickly, it is very difficult for me to tell.

Yes. The path of an almanac page is predetermined, so you can learn where it will go, beat it there and then just wait.

They tend to follow obvious free running paths anyway, so they're generally not too hard to catch unless they go over things like rooftops and the like where you don't have a path to follow.
