During this class you will learn the basic operations of recreational-use GPS. You will create waypoints for destination-driven mapping and collect routes as you walk. Proper use of the navigational compass and pacing will be covered in depth. How to read a topographic map will be covered as well. After the classroom portion, we will move outdoors to apply what we’ve learned. Please dress appropriately for the outdoors.
