		<description><![CDATA[I have never been an advocate of having a Global Positioning System (GPS) as the primary source for outdoor/cross-country navigation. However, if working, I do think a GPS would be nice as a secondary confirmation, and reinforcement that you were using good sound Map Reading/Land Navigation skills. Buying a GPS is like buying a car [...]]]></description>

I for one went into the electronic age dragging my feet and screaming/hollering all the way. But, the more I got into it, the more I realized its true merits. This includes researching and shopping for things on the Internet. [...]]]></description>

This includes a tent (4-5 person), a couple battery operated lanterns, and possibly a new 4-burner stove (propane). Total cost of these items will be several hundred dollars. However, being a prudent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Loving the outdoors is a learned concept. It normally starts at a very young age; therefore, parents do play an important role in forming that life-long relationship. However, certain factors may preclude this from happening &#8211; scarcity of time , general disinterest, lack of knowledge, or even a genuine concern about safety. These are valid [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When navigating with a compass on a specific azimuth/direction, never walk with the compass in the open position. It&#8217;s not only hard on the compass,  it further subjects it  to possible damage ; plus,  it’s not accurate when used this way. It is better to identify an easily recognizable landmark on the azimuth/direction line of movement. These landmarks or steering [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Movement by Dead Reckoning consists of two basic, fundamental Map Reading/Land Navigation steps: The use of a protractor and graphic scales to determine the direction/azimuth and distance from one point to another on a map. Use of a compass and some means of measuring distance to apply this information on the ground. Essentially, Dead Reckoning normally begins [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Movement by Terrain Association is quicker, less tedious, more forgiving and fun than is Dead Reckoning (dependent on previous location/computations). However, there will be times during movement by Terrain Association when you will need to stop and confirm your position through either plotted or estimated resection. Errors made using Terrain Association can be corrected fairly [...]]]></description>
