I just finished a handout in PowerPoint format about Land Navigation with Map, Compass and Map and Compass together. I am waiting for it to be approved through slideshare.net but will link it here ASAP. Anyone will be able to print it out, use it or pass it along. It is in the style we teach it up at the WLC. If it helps one person stay found, it was worth my time I put into it.

I am also already more than halfway through another handout covering another survival priority. Keep checking the forums for more skills related handouts and tutorials in the next few months.

Sorry for the tease but it will be worth it. For those of you that can't handle teases, are you going to cry?! Haha

Kevin that is awesome of you to do. Thank you so much. Your bow drill powerpoint was a real help to me!
 
Thanks. This is REALLY appreciated. Always wanted to start learning about this stuff, but didn't know what direction to go in.
 
Awesome..... I have your bowdrill powerpoint and it is awesome. I cant wait to get this one, and any other you put together.

Thanks Kev. :thumbup:
 
Great Kevin, looking forward to the refresher that I am badly in need of.
 
Kevin,

On the LURD cross model on slide 49, is the Up supposed to equal "East" rather than "Right", as per the table?

It's a great tutorial.
 
Thanks Kev, I've been focusing on map & compass while hiking lately. You're efforts are much appreciated. :thumbup:
 
Brian,

Good grab. I totally passed over that one! I just took care of it and it is accurate now. Thank you my friend.

Kev
