About the Class
Learn one of the most essential backcountry skills in this hands-on training block. You’ll start with the fundamentals of reading topographic maps and identifying terrain features, then master compass skills to confidently navigate without electronics. Finally, we’ll introduce modern tools like Gaia GPS and OnX, showing you how to plan routes and navigate effectively using your smartphone or GPS device. By the end of the class, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to find your way — even if the batteries die or you lose signal.
