In recent years there have appeared many asymptotic studies devoted to the analysis of weakly nonlinear hyperbolic waves arising from small amplitude, high frequency excitations. Many notable results have been derived and summarized as the Weakly Nonlinear Geometric Optics. We shall present the asymptotic solution and complete the shock front tracking, both in an explicit fashion. Our analysis provides a transparent picture of the transition from wave breaking to shock formation. It is interesting to see that our asymptotic solution remains valid after shock initiation. The admittance of spatial variability also introduces some new phenomena, which are to be made precise later. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0911.00031].
