WHAT YOU’LL DO

When your GPS fails you while you're looking for a new restaurant, that's annoying. But that annoyance becomes downright dangerous while in the backcountry. With this six hour course from Treks and Tracks, you'll learn a low-tech solution that'll have you finding your way in even the most remote locations. Experienced instructors will teach you skills including orienting a map without a compass, route finding, triangulating, and even the difference between true and magnetic north. The course is highly interactive, with games and hands-on practice that will help to cement what you learn. Sure, you'll probably take your GPS along on your next hike, but when it gets stuck searching for a signal, you'll still be in the driver's seat.

What's Included

  • A six hour hands-on class on navigation and orienteering.
  • Learn to find your way using a map and compass.
  • Spectacular hike with plenty of wildlife sightings.
  • Games and plenty of practice make the lessons concrete.
  • Classes limited to 12 people for plenty of personal attention.
