What's going on guys is black Scouts revival and today I'm going to do a tutorial on map and compass I have gotten a lot over the years people asking me about navigation and I'm going to try to do this ongoing you know I'm not going to do everything at one time this would be a two-hour video so I'm going to do the most basic stuff first.
And we're going to work through and I go through the whole gamut of everything but I just want to give you this little nugget of information out so you can go ahead and use the map and compass for general navigation today so we're going to first talk about the features of the compass then we're going to talk about how to use it with a map okay guys this.
Is the soon to mc2 global compass this is a sighting compass so it has the mirror section here used for sighting and we'll talk about that in the future videos and stuff like that but anyhow let's talk about some of the features like you say you have a sighting mirror you have the bearing index which is just lying this little arrow this little tick.
Arrow here you have the bezel ring and has bearing marks on here you have the orienting arrow which is this arrow right here that's in that dial that you can see moving there some people call it the dog house or the box down below here inside the compass is the declination scale and we'll cover that future video adjusting declination then you have the.
Orienteering lines here which are going with the orienteering arrow and then you have the compass needle and the orange in this case because this is the global usually that they're red but that always points north then you have little scales and stuff like that that you can use for judging distance and then you have a magnifying glass there as well if you.
Have a declination scale is going to come with a little declination tool like that right there okay guys so we're going to go ahead and show you how to find your azmuth for a direction and you can see here this is the reference lines here this is north and south line east and west line now if I'm going to and if I'm.
Going to get my bearing from or orient my map you'll see this is the North line here and my compass is pointing North is this way so what I'll need to do is to get my mouth oriented I'll need to flip it around okay and then I can use my just to show you so now my map is oriented so in this case let's say I'm here at the.
Hurricane branch and if you can draw your map use a pencil usually or use map a map protector and map pens and let's say I'm going down here to Round Mountain my finish and I'm going to draw a line to there so what I'm going to do now to get this bearing is I'm going to place my compass edge up against that line I'm going to make sure my Orient.
Orienteering arrows in line it's lined up with the North and South reference line so you can see that little line inside there possibly and I'm going to twist those reference lines to match up with this line right here so now what I've got is right here 130 degrees is my azmuth if I'm going from hurricane to round mountain from going this direction.
Now if I was going this direction I would place the compass facing this way so make sure you're facing the compass towards that area so got our gutter azmuth now it's 130 now let me show you something else you can also use a compass card this is a SC knives compass card if you place that compass card in the center of this line and match up you.
Can match up if you get the grid right make sure the grid on is correct and place it in the center and then match those inside lines to your line you will have see that north and south reference line it match something you see that's 130 degrees there as well using that compass card moving on to the next portion so at the bottom of each map.
You're going to have a scale and you can use your compass to measure that distance on that scale so then you can take that information and lay it from your start to finish your point A to point B and find out how far your distance is now I'm going to put a link to a video that we did previously on paste count beads and watch that video.
And it will teach you how to pace count and use those beads for measuring your distance we'll talk about backstops all that kind of stuff handrails to keep you from going beyond your point in the future but this Lex I wanted to keep this kind of basic so like I said it's important to orient that map I see a lot of people put their compass down they'll.
Shoot it and stuff like that but then they're not they're not their Maps not oriented smart to orient your map to your compass now we have that 130 degree bearing in that on that reference index there so what we're going to do now is we're going to turn the compass until we box that needle and when I mean box that need.
I'm I try to get it to do it is you're going to put that that orange or red part of that needle inside that or an orienteering arrow there so box the needle like that right there so hold your compass out in front of you don't turn or twist to hold it straight out front of you use your mirror to look down into.
And see that you're pointing that arrow while you're holding that compass out in front of you in the right direction you can see that so you'll box that compass holding out in front of you take and use the sighting line on your compass and shoot far out as you can and look for a terrain feature or opponents rain feature that you can walk to out in.
The distance once you get that terrain feature you'll shoot that azmuth again you'll stand if it's a tree you'll put your back up against that tree and shoot out again and keep going like that right there okay guys that was how to use a map and compass very basic useful covered declination handrails backstop so like I.
Said in the future but I wanted to get this out there so you can go start to practice that navigation get a local map of your area and start just practicing you know you can carry GPS to back yourself up but just go ahead and start practicing that navigation I know a lot people struggle with it but it is one of the most critical and valuable survival.
Skills there is if you know how to navigate and you're not don't have a severe injury you can usually find your way out of a bad situation there is hope this video helps make sure your scribe to our channels we put out a few new videos every week and as always thanks for watching

Thanks to the impending micronova, declination is appealing worthy farther, and much faster and so declination knowledge is probably mistaken nonetheless there might be aloof a contrivance to recalibrate magnetic declination the usage of the shadow of sticks recording the route of the solar—rotation of the earth has now not yet changed. First stick will display camouflage East. Tag it with a provocative stick pushed in. After about a minutes you might well presumably designate solar shadow stir where the shadow has moved – Push one other stick in to designate West. Lay a straight stick from the E designate to the W designate. Geographic north or Correct North is 90 levels from the E-W line. Alongside with your compass pointing toward Correct North, display camouflage how a long way off your compass is now. That is your appropriate up-to-date declination. My up-to-date declination is 30 levels, 15 levels off from the reputable declination for my home. More on micronova in my 2nd book, Surviving the Micronova: This Divulge Is on the Tracks
I don’t mediate here’s appropriate
Sizable video. It's been along time since I did the relaxation enjoy used to be in this video. Thanks.
Very priceless video, thank you! We had to be taught this in the militia and I used to be totally baffled. (It doesn't encourage when drill instructors are yelling at of us.) I don't mediate the militia compass we well-liked had any place advance the aspects of that Suunto, nonetheless it undoubtedly had the total mandatory ones. To on the 2d, I'm aloof undecided how I purchased thru that orientation direction. Come to mediate of it, I had pains with it support in the Boy Scouts, too. Gorgeous wasn't clicking in the noggin, I bet. Sizable video!
I watched rather about a Compass videos to learm and here’s the handiest one!
Thanks so worthy
The video used to be going exact the total contrivance up till the point where you forgot something extremely main , even for newbie 'inclination' and 'declination' it's an real must know can bear to you absolutely want to accumulate to where you’ll need to accumulate to
Good ample, so can bear to you were blindfolded and dropped in the center of nowhere, how would you spend this to search out out where you are earlier than you might well presumably know how to accumulate where you’ll need to gallop?
Misplaced us on the 130.
Proper Job Sir
The reality the person want to coach trigonometry to make spend of a compass is telling
