Wilderness Navigation: Maps, Compasses, and Finding Your Way Without GPS
A deep-dive into backcountry navigation using topographic maps, baseplate compasses, terrain association, and dead reckoning — the skills that keep you oriented when your phone battery dies and that deepen your understanding of the landscape. Covers contour line reading, magnetic declination, taking and following bearings, triangulation, trip planning, and navigating in fog or whiteout conditions.
