Why Proper Navigation Training is Necessary - 02/10/12 06:18 PM
I just finished up a article on why Proper Navigation Training is necessary and figured some of you may be interested in reading it.
The most important point that I attempt to make in this article is that we underrate the importance of good navigation skills in avoiding Survival Situations and often take Wilderness Navigation skills for granted, especially the Compass.
In the article I go over the top three avoidable mistakes in wilderness travel. No route planning or route card, No rescue plan or escape route, and Not understanding how to use the Navigator’s Toolbelt.

I hope you find the information of interest and spent some time practicing with your compass and making a Routecard before you leave for the woods next time.
