This book teaches everything (and we mean everything) that you need to know to find your way with map and compass - or with either one alone. Whether you plan to spend time in the backcountry or plan to spend time in orienteering competition, this is an important book to read and study. Includes exercises and illustrations. Oh, for those who don't know, Orienteering is the sport of traveling through the backcountry with map and compass finding a series of checkpoints along route - it's not a big sport in the USA, but it's huge in parts of Europe! 220 page B & W
