This will be an introduction to navigating with a compass, protractor and map. This is a significant portion of the Warfighter Challenge, and the goal is to get individuals comfortable with navigating using only a compass and protractor. There will be a refresher and basic introduction beforehand. Location and Time Saturday April 26th Starting at 14:00. Google Maps coordinates 39.3669785, -105.2461592 Required Equipment -Lensatic or orienting style compass -1:25 Map Protractor -Map Pens -Map Will be provided Highly recommend studying beforehand, and below are the resources I used prior to the WFC. https://www.maptools.com/tutorials/mgrs/quick_guide https://randallsadventure.com/sites/default/files/rat-sar-land-nav.pdf Now if you show up totally green and don’t know how to read coordinates or find points on a map can you still succeed? Maybe, but it’ll be easier if you have a basic understanding of the concepts. If you would like to attend IT IS CRITICAL YOU RSVP beforehand so we can have a map for you and set points. Email ([email protected]), IM me or respond to this thread if you are interested. Afterwards we will be having a Night shoot in a different location. Details will be provided at the event. Looking forward to seeing you all. |
