difficult, especially when your phone or GPS malfunctions. But

pathfinding will help outdoorsman find their way in almost any kind
of terrain. Navigating With or Without a Compass will teach you the

true north and magnetic north based on where you are and using
compass bearings from a map and in the field to determine location.
However if you find yourself without a compass, this handy guide

such as the way the wind blows, trees grow, or flowers bloom. Also
covered will be determining direction through reading the Sun and
the shadows it forms, the position and stages of the Moon, and
familiarizing oneself with the principal constellations to guide
you and determine the time at night. Perfect for the skilled
woodsman or just a walk in the woods, Navigating With or Without a
Compass is filled with tips and essential knowledge indispensable
for hikers, campers, scouts and nature lovers.
