People get lost every year while traveling in the wilderness, and some of those people are unfortunate enough to not make it out alive. Even just getting lost while driving on a country road can be enough to give most people a scare. You're out there away from civilization, and suddenly you have no idea where you are. While it's just a matter of turning on the GPS on your smartphone, or using local signs to find your way back in the right direction, that's not always the case.

Wilderness Navigation Handbook by Fred Touche Pdf

Designed for both land and water use, this comprehensive guide helps unlock the complexity of map and chart reading as it relates to navigation. Beginning with detailed technical descriptions of the tools of navigation—a compass, an altimeter, a GPS system, and a sextant—this handbook shows how to use these tools either individually or in combination with each other to navigate any area. Factors that cause tools and techniques to fail are discussed, such as why an altimeter often shows the wrong elevation, a GPS position is sometimes off track, and the sun often points in an unexpected direction. Twenty-one real-life scenarios provide practical wisdom for even the most intrepid navigator. Specific information on using the moon for directions and the stars for position, measuring boiling water temperature for elevation, map projections, map datums, great circle routes, and the UTM/UPS grid system is included.

Wilderness Navigation by Steve Rayder Pdf

Wilderness Navigation Map and Compass Navigation Techniques and Orienteering Skills Do you want to learn about wilderness navigation and orienteering in a simple and easy to understand way? This easy to follow book, with handy illustrations throughout, will guide you through the usually overcomplicated world of orienteering and navigation with a map and compass in a concise and clear way. Accurate wilderness navigation using a map and compass is vital for anyone who is intending to get out and explore the great outdoors. Even with the modern technology we have available to us, this is still an essential survival skill. Electronic equipment such as GPS is prone to many issues such as poor signal, battery life, malfunction, overheating and water damage. Without roads to follow, it will simply guide you in a straight line. This could lead you straight into a cliff face that you would either have to climb or walk for miles around. A map however will have contour lines that you can read. This book covers all of the topics you will need to learn about in order to read maps and use a compass accurately including: The different types of compass and their uses, the different types of north, declination, the different types of map and which one to choose, planning a journey and working out bearings, finding where you are when lost and how to get back on course, how to use coordinates and much more!
