Have You Learned This Important Skill?

Navigation may not be the sexiest skill-set, but if there’s ever an emergency that requires you to navigate off the grid with a map and compass, you’ll be happy you learned it. There are countless apps and devices these days that handle all the heavy lifting for us when it comes to navigating, but during a true emergency will those devices still function?

Today we’d like to share some products that will kick-start your learning. In addition, we’ve got a great article highlighted below that will show you the best method for folding your topographic maps.

Remember, the basics never run out of batteries.
