SUMMARY:Navigation Introduction - 1 Day
DESCRIPTION:This introductory level course takes place in Snowdonia and will get you started on your navigational journey\, preparing you to safely enjoy hillwalking and a range of other outdoor activities without getting lost. \n(Mountain Rescue estimate that 80% of accidents in the hills are the result of a simple navigational error). \nThe course is fun and interactive\, based entirely outdoors and is a practical hands on course. It is aimed at people with no navigation experience\, whether you are new to the outdoors or have been relying on others\, guidebooks\, easy well-defined routes or reliant on your phone to direct you! \nThe course covers navigation in the countryside using paths tracks and other linear features and basic map interpretation. \n————————————————————————- \nSyllabus \nMap scales and selection of maps. \nUse a 6 figure grid reference with worded descriptions to define the position of a map feature and to locate a feature on the ground. \nOrientate the map using handrails\, obvious point features and major landforms. \nUse linear features (e.g. paths\, tracks\, clear boundaries) as handrails in simple navigation exercises. \nRelate prominent landforms such as large hills and valleys to corresponding contour information on the map. \nOrientating a map to the ground in front of you to locate yourself. \nUse an orientated map to confirm the direction of travel. \nUse clearly identifiable features to confirm position along the route. \nMeasure horizontal distance on the map and estimate distance on the ground using timing. \nPlan and implement simple routes and navigation strategies based on the above skills. \n——————————————————— \nCourse details: \nThis course runs over a single day and  All training will be delivered practically in the outdoors rather than in a classroom. This is a ‘hands-on’ real navigation course. \n*Please contact myself via email with any course enquiries: martinwall013@gmail.com \nor click on link below for bookings: \n \n  \n \n
