I recommend a compass that you can adjust for declination. The 9020G is a good start as is the Suunto M2.

My favorite is the Silva Ranger but you can expect to pay about $50.

Check out www.magnetic-declination.com for current declination info. Remember, many of the topo's available have declination data that is out of date.

Best of luck,
