1. Find a visible object that is identifiable on your

map and follow steps 1-3 of the ‘Sight a bearing’

procedure.

2. On the map, place the long edge of the compass on

the object (1).

3. Turn the compass until the orienting lines and

meridian lines are parallel and draw a line from the

object.

4. Choose a second object and repeat steps 1-3.

The intersection of the two lines indicates your

position, and the closer the angle between the

intersecting lines is to 90°, the greater the accuracy.

7. Measure slope incline

The scale for declination correction on the back of the

capsule also functions as a scale for the clinometer.

1. Turn the capsule so that the bearing index is at 270°

(due West) and tilt compass on its side with the

declination scale downwards.

2. If you have a clear view across the slope, align the

compass to the slope with the back of the compass is

facing you.
