Synopsis

A guide to all methods of navigation from map and compass to GPS. Having the skills of navigation at your disposal is a liberating experience. Getting away from the crowds, inventing your own routes, discovering new areas, and perhaps most importantly having the confidence to navigate by yourself, will all make your outdoor experience more enjoyable. This comprehensive guide to navigation is aimed at giving you the incentive, the skills and the tools to do this. With the author's anecdotes and handy hints close by, those new to using the map and compass, and those who have already mastered navigational skills, will find this guide inspiration enough to get 'out there' and experience the outdoors safely while still having fun.
