Top wilderness trainer and author, Craig Caudill, is back with his
third wilderness book, this time partnering with fellow navigation
expert Tracy Trimble to teach readers all the ins and outs of
safely finding their way in the woods. Land navigation remains an
essential survival skill, even in the age of the GPS. Craig and
Tracy have stories from their search and rescue recovery trips
where hikers and other adventurers relied too heavily on electronic
navigation devices that failed. GPS units are surprisingly fragile;
they can easily be damaged, get lost or run out of battery. People
are becoming more aware of this issue and seeking safer solutions.
This practical, modern guide teaches anyone to become a true
wilderness expert by properly using the most reliable form of
navigation - a map and compass. Readers will learn to check
themselves with natural navigation skills such as reading the sky,
flora and terrain, and utilise a GPS only as a backup. This fresh
guide, like Craig's other popular books, walks readers through
common scenarios, with bonus foldout maps at the back that help
outdoorsmen learn their skills by experience. Readers will not want
to miss out on this enjoyable and relevant guide to mastering the
most essential survival skill.
