On this hike you will learn basic map and compass skills so you can orient yourself and a map to true north. Next, you'll learn how to determine where you are on the map. Finally, we'll utilize the compass and map to navigate to a specific location. We’ll also look at the value of hiking apps that you may want to use. The hike will cover 2.0-2.5 miles of beautiful trails and ascend up to 250 feet. This adventure is a blend of hiking and instruction meant to help you with your navigation skills.
