Just another day at the office........
"Today is a hill day ....I'm training, and he ( Son of Outdoorsman) is assessing you over a 10-leg route covering about 8 or 9 kms ...pacing, bearings, timings, emergency procedures, and micro navigation to within 10 metres.....Enjoy."

Hi ander; well, we DID have a GPS but the rules of the training qualification state that all navigation must be only by map and/or compass work; we can teach about the GPS - but no reliance on it. Having said that our Garmin 'e-Trex' was 200 metres out on one of it's locations. Not good if thta's all you've got and you're looking for your RV in 100m visibility! Hope you're well...couldn't get up to see you this season - but hopefully will be there before December. :-)) B
