Compass App? Don’t rely on them

Compass App? Don’t rely on them

Without a doubt, handheld phones and all the apps that go along with them are great little tools for outdoor adventure.  There are a number of apps that you can use to make your stay in the great outdoors more enjoyable and educational.  Check back with us later for another blog piece on that very topic.

However, you should never use your handheld phone as a compass and expect any degree of accuracy.  There are also a few other things to consider when engaging for the first time, or as a beginner, in good, solid land navigation skills.  Watch this video in which I discuss three things for beginners and I show you how far off compasses on a phone can be.
