Protection spells prevent you being detected. That's what Hermione casted dozens of time in the 7th book when they were on a run too

Yeah but Voldermort didn’t even have a body and couldn’t use a wand.
Maybe you can’t send an owl to someone who’s not a Ghost but not a spirit either.

magic/protective spells at a level that maybe only dumbledore could match
voldemort was really peerless, if only he would not have been obsessed with the prophesy and h. potter

Didn’t he have the ability to inhabit people?

Yeah but he was in the forest of Albania with only animals around. Quirell was the first person he possessed. When he came back in the fourth book he said that he expected one of his faithful death eaters to come find him and do the magic he couldn’t because he didn’t have a body.

Don't need a wand to use magic

Plus your 2nd argument makes sense as well

There's no way they're finding the greatest dark wizard of all time.
