Florida Orienteering volunteer Blaik teaches the class and we have loaner compasses if you don't yet own one.

This class is a continuation to our INTRO course, building on the skills learned in it.

This presentation covers intermediate navigation concepts and skills to take your orienteering to the next level and prep you to succeed on intermediate and advanced level courses. Topics include:
A review of attack points
“C.A.R.” route planning
collecting features
how to set and walk a compass bearing through the woods or off-trail
how to estimate distance via pace counting
using a "handrail” and catching features
aiming off on a catching feature
how to relocate when "temporarily misoriented," and
changing your relationship with the feeling of being lost.
