October: Wilderness Navigation

Saturday, October 28th
2–4 pm @ Green Anchors, N. Portland

Human bodies and brains are well equipped for navigating unfamiliar terrain and mental mapping, but due to GPS and other technologies many of us are out of practice. In this class we will go over how to use a map and compass, how to orient yourself with the sun, how to find the North Star at night, and various other techniques for not getting lost in the woods. You will come out of this class confident and well equipped for practicing on your own.
