These are a low-cost addition to your backwoods navigation kit for those who prefer to use a map and compass instead of GPS. A set of four rulers in popular map scales for backcountry navigation is included. Miles and kilometers are marked on one side of each ruler, while minutes and seconds are marked in two different scales on the other. This set comes in a plastic case and includes a pamphlet that explains how to use the rulers. In most cases, I don't require knowledge of my lat. /long. I used the minute/second scale on a 1:50 scale in the field, but only for fun. To see how close I could come to calculating the lat, I made a 100,000 map. /long. at the address I provide After you've determined the lat, you can move on to the next step. /long. I used the ruler and map to compare this to the GPS coordinates. I was only 250 feet away from that location. Not bad for just having a good time. br> When working with a map, you'll almost always need a straight edge of some sort, so why not have one that also serves as a distance measuring and location-finding tool?.

To put it another way, these rulers were made with spot-on accuracy. precision is based br>So yeah, get these and you'll be fine.
If you don't have a UTM ruler, you'll need to get one. This is extremely beneficial. You have no idea where you are unless you have a UTM ruler, a GPS, and a topo map. br>You could be 100 yards away from a spring and have no idea where it is or how to find it. It came to my rescue in southern Utah, where there were 55 miles of slot canyon red rock trails with dozens of canyons that looked the same. However, I discovered THE canyon from which I needed to return to my vehicle! DO NOT LEAVE HOME WITHOUT IT, AND LEARN HOW TO USE IT BEFORE YOU LEAVE.
This is an excellent mapping tool. It can be used to read maps and navigate on land. FM 3- This is an excellent practice tool, and the set ensures that you have all of the most common sizes.
They're just plain map rulers, but they get the job done.
Otherwise, you'll have to convert to get the distances right, but the map tools work as advertised. They perform admirably and accomplish their goal.
Arrived much earlier than expected. If you've never worked with USFS maps or other topo maps other than those used by the military, the enclosed literature will come in handy. 50,000.
Graduations that are absolutely perfect! I was only looking for the 1 at first. I wouldn't have bought it if it hadn't been for the price. They were immediately added to my map collection. With Map Tools products, you can't go wrong!.
