Introduction to Map and Compass

Have you ever gotten lost? Maps, compasses, and observational skills are useful if you know how to use them. 

In addition to learning how to use a map and compass, we will also be teaching you:

  • How to become more observant of your surroundings

  • How to overcome psychological obstacles people face when they become lost

  • How to create a thorough trip plan to reduce the likelihood of getting lost in the first place

  • How to make yourself more visible to a search and rescue team

After you register, you will be emailed the zoom link to this workshop.
