For anyone who enjoys walking, mountaineering, canoeing, skiing,
sailing, or mountain biking, it is important to have a sound grasp
of key techniques for planning and maintaining a route under any
possible condition, day or night, rain or snow. This compact,
easy-to-use handbook, developed out of six decades of experience by
the British Army's Special Air Service Brigade, provides clear
advice on navigation methods, both for a fully equipped journey and
in emergency situations.
Beginning with such navigation fundamentals as understanding
grid references on maps and how to use a compass and GPS (global
positioning system), "The SAS Guide to Tracking and Navigation"
goes on to provide detailed information on such subjects as finding
your way without a map or compass, reading the sun and stars,
navigating in extreme environments, marking trails, signaling for
help, and tracking both animals and people as well as basic tips on
how to elude being tracked yourself. Every procedure is
demonstrated in step-by-step diagrams that clearly outline what to
do and what not to do in order to bring you and your companions
safely to your destination.
