How to Use a Compass
Lost? Can't find a way out of the forest? Need a refresher in orienteering?
The List presents a helpful site devoted to explaining everything gentle
members need to know about using a compass.
This illustrated guide includes such topics as compass and map interacting,
magnetic declination and methods of navigating in dense fog. There's even a
collection of rhymes and mnemonics to help remember declination.
Note - Although the introductory paragraphs at this URL state "The pages
have moved", the URL cited below is correct for the compass guide.
Navigate to the website for an excellent tutorial on the compass at:
