Learn to navigate with a map and compass!
The skills of reading a map and using a compass are an essential for bushwalking, and having these skills means relying less on your phone and being stuck when it runs out of battery or loses signal.

This is a great afternoon to come along, learn the skills, then practice them in a fun way. We will cover a range of topics including:

– Map orientation. 
– Compass basics such as bezel, baseplate, bearings, arrows 
– Obtaining a bearing and magnetic declination 
– Following a bearing 
– Attack points and using features
WE THEN HEAD OUTSIDE AND PRACTICE THE KNOWLEDGE WITH SOME GAMES AND TIME ON A DEDICATED NAVIGATION COURSE – USING YOUR NEW SKILLS – YIKES!!
This is a two hour session with about 1.5hrs of theory then some practice.
This a hands on, fun session where you can ask any question you like, spend the time on the things you want to know and use the skills you have learnt outside.
