I just picked up the Ultimate Navigation Manual by Lyle Brotherton. Having been a Land Navigation trainer for our departments ERT team I have bought about every book on land navigation just to make me a better trainer. This book by Lyle Brotherton is hands down the best book out there on land navigation.It covers from beginner to expert land navigation training.If you are needing to learn land navigation or want to improve your skill level this is the book!I am going to recommend this book to be required reading for the ERT members.
 
He takes you step by step so that you understand each technique as you go along.This book could take some one with no knowledge of land nav and as the do each chapter by the end they will be an expert.Each chapter has field test for you to do before moving on.His micro navigation system is the best I have seen. Most of the other land Nav manuals would confuse some one with out any knowledge this one will not.
 
Thanks DropTyne.I take land nav very serious. Our last escape we were tracking him through some of the thickest nasty cedar swamps. Took us 2 1/2 days but we caught him. Hence where I live it is all thick forest and swamps.I was our team trainer up until my retirement last month. I also hunt way off the beaten path.I am constantly striving to improve my skills and I work with the new ERT trainer in his off time to help him improve how he sets up training scenarios.
 
Thanx for the heads up Big! I'll have to check that one out, if you say its a good one, that's enough for me! Never to soon to start teaching skills to our kids, maybe I can make a game of it for Zyler.

Congrats again on the full retirement, btw!

I checked it out on Amazon - it is available for Kindle - and you can check out the first chapter for free. VERY nice. Love the depth.
