How many ways are there to determine north if your compass is on the fritz? (and the hoary "moss grows on the n side of trees" doesn't count)
For me, I can think of a few:
- Backup compass
- Technology
- Observe sunrise and determine where North is from where East is
- Observe stars and find Polaris
- Observe known landmarks
- Shadow stick method
- Analog watch method, if someone with me is wearing one
