Silva-STARTER 1-2-3 COMPASS

The SILVA Starter 1-2-3 Compass is a straightforward, easy-to-read baseplate compass for learning navigation and handling the basics in the field. Its transparent baseplate makes working directly on a map simple, while clear markings and a prominent direction-of-travel arrow help take some of the confusion out of learning traditional map-and-compass skills.

A rotating housing works with SILVA's 1-2-3 System®, and the built-in declination scale helps with navigation calculations. The baseplate includes both millimeter and inch measuring scales, while red and black north/south lines make aligning the compass easy to see. A slight curve at the rear of the baseplate also gives it a comfortable feel in the hand.

For hikers, scouts, outdoor education, or anyone who wants a dependable backup to their phone or GPS, the Starter 1-2-3 is a simple piece of navigation gear worth knowing how to use.
