Hands On Map & Compass - REI Austin Downtown

11/3/2009 6:30 PM

REI will present a clinic aimed at the newcomer to map and compass. We will cover the basics such as understanding map symbols, orienting the map and compass, triangulation, declination adjustment, and reading terrain features.

We will have about 10 loaner compasses for the class. If you own one already, feel free to bring it!

If you like our Map & Compass class, then consider signing up to attend our GPS 101 (part I & II) classes on Nov. 10 & 17th, 6:30pm. See separate listing for details.
