2. Orienting the map
To better understand your surroundings, you should
use your compass to first turn your map in the right
direction. This ensures the geographic features around
you are in the same general direction as you see them
on the map.
1. Hold your compass level and look at the red end of
the needle to see where north is.
2. Turn the map so that the northern upper edge is
pointing north.
3. Navigate with map and compass
When navigating with a map and compass, you are first
determining a direction of travel on the map and then
transferring that direction to the real world.
1. Place the compass on the map between your
starting point (A) and your target (B).
