USING A COMPASS WHEN THERE IS NO VISIBILITY
IMAGINE TRYING to identify where you are along a track, or confirming you are on the right track. If a bearing is taken of your line of travel it can be matched to the map to help determine where you are. However, taking a single bearing may not be enough. On a 1:50,000 scale map, some twists and turns may be concealed and several bearings may be needed.
