Great video! I loved teaching land nav to soldiers when I was in the Army. Taking time to be accurate is very important. An accurate pace count and accurate compass reading are the most important thing. Sometimes the terrain makes it very difficult to keep an accurate pace count. In your example, you had a trail to follow, which makes for a good exercise. Going off trail is more difficult. We normally kept our pacing beads higher on our chest straps and kept the pacing beads up, so it was easier to slide one down as you were walking. Great demonstration Jess!

Thanks! Thats really cool you were teaching this stuff in the military. I really enjoy traveling off trail, so learning this stuff was such a game changer for me. Its near impossible to walk a straight line here off trail. Thanks for the tip on the pacing beads. That makes sense. Truth be told, I rarely use them here. I am planning a follow up on this one, to convert the data to paper. Its been a minute since I did one, so that will be good practice for me. Have a good one!

​@@EnduranceRoom You can self map when you go off trail and the big factors are finding an easily identifiable object that you can walk to in a straight line to and keeping a good pace count. Self mapping is somewhat easier than navigating to a point you've picked out on a map, because you make up the map as you go. If you see a hilltop on a topo map and it looks like it might be a good place to scout for deer, you would shoot an azimuth on paper from your known starting point and then figure out the distance. In that case, you have to pick out an object to shoot an azimuth to and then walk a straight line to the hilltop. Since you know the distance based off of the map measurement, you know you'll have to travel 550 meters. Difficult things that you'll encounter are terrain features that are not passable and terrain that will effect your pace count. If you have to climb 300 feet in elevation, your steps will be shorter and your pace count will be longer since you have to travel more distance. If you have to box a terrain feature, such as a swamp, you'll have to shoot an azimuth 90 degrees right or left of your original azimuth, then walk until you can clear the obstacle, note your pace count, turn right or left to shoot your original azimuth and continue your original pace count until you've cleared the obstacle, then turn right or left to shoot an another azimuth that is 90 degrees opposite of the way you walked to clear the obstacle and walk the same number of paces back to your original azimuth of travel. Hopefully you made it to the easily identifiable feature that you saw from the other side of the obstacle and you can shoot your original azimuth and carry on with your original pace count. When I would set up land nav courses and teach the class, I would always have the contour lines marked on the ground with a white tape we called engineer tape. It was to give people a different perspective on how to look at a map in three dimensions. I'd usually set up a basic course with 3 points that were easily identifiable when you got within 10 meters and an advanced course with 5 points with one of them being a timed leg where they would have to link up with soldiers at the waypoint and hand something off like equipment, rations, ammo, or water. If the team didn't make it there before the end of the time window, the soldiers would leave and report back to me at the training area and the team would get a No Go for that leg. At each point was a unique punch and sometimes I would put a decoy punch that was wrong either before or after the correct point just to get them questioning themselves about their pace count and add some extra stress. It was always a good time to spend in the woods finding a good terrain feature to hide the post with the punch attached. I set one up about 20 meters in a marsh once, then it rained like cats and dogs overnight and shin deep water became thigh deep water. I look forward to more of you land nav videos!

@@TheVerbiousOneAwesome, my friend. I really like the tape for the contour lines. That is a great tip. Your classes sound like a blast. Where were they ran? Very inline with what they were teaching at PFS. I went back out today for a bit and ran the azimuth from the PAUL map. Shot a line up over a hill through pretty thick timber for 350m and used a lot what you mentioned here. I wanted to plan the route for my own use, but it ended up working out as a demo for the PAUL map. Came out about 10m south of where I was aiming. Hopefully it comes across in the video. I tried to get as much of it as I could filming while walking and counting. Oh, I moved the pacing beads up to my shoulders and switched to top down. Much better. Video should be up in a day or two. Thanks for the feedback and tips. Have a good one!

@@EnduranceRoom I was stationed at Fort Bragg, NC from 96-01 when I was training soldiers in my unit. Land nav was just really fun for me. I tried to get soldiers to figure out creative ways to navigate from point A to point B and how to get there as stressfully as possible, as I added in extra stress. Haha. One of the things I really tried to convey to the soldiers in my unit, was positively identifying a terrain feature and then resetting and navigating from there. The same azimuth can be shot from anywhere on the ground and all you end up with is a parallel line. If you walk it, you might be 100m away from your target, and 100% on the same azimuth. There are some really fun hobbies like geocaching and orienteering courses that can really test your skills. You really have the self mapping part nailed down and demonstrate it very well!

@@EnduranceRoom Yeah. Strikes me as a talent best cultivated during short hikes on your own in a known area. Then, if you're with other people and already know what you're doing they won't complain so much. The biggest problem I had with my Land Navigation courses - was measuring the distance of my pace. Your point about averaging your step over different bits of terrain is really good advice. We measured our steps in a flat dirt area and once we went up into the hills ... we were off. The other thing was we didn't measure them over long enough distances. I don't remember what it was - but it was NOT 100 yards. It was really short. .

Hi Jess .. A good Tutorial and well demonstrated 👍👍👍 .. thanks for sharing. 'Counting steps' .. I find myself doing it without even thinking .. from climbing the steps up to the bus stop above where I live to during my Nordic Walking .. both in territory with which I am highly familiar 😁. Maps are handy items .. even those one can get from the local Municipality / City Tourist Bureau. They may not have Grid Co-ordinates but together with a Compass, can keep one out of trouble. I get lost in my own back yard 🙄 .. no sense of direction 😁. For me, a Compass, at the very least is essential .. I have a simple one attached to my Pack Shoulder Strap .. even when I go to the City. Also .. knowing where one is at the start of an outing .. what lies N-S-E-W of one and how far to landmarks in each direction (roads, fields, streams, etc, etc) goes a long way to not vanishing up one''s own .. 😏. A good one Jess. More in this vein would nice please. I'm sure that many will benefit .. even as a refresher for some. Take care .. Tommy

Thank you, Tommy! Absolutely. You can do a whole lot with a simple button compass. I used an old GI style for years and years, before getting some knowledge on the rotating bezel ring type. If I am doing map related land nav, I use that style, but everyday stuff is primarily done with just a simple compass for basic cardinal directions. I like to use the sun quite a bit when I can for the same purpose, but that really depends on the day. Have a good one, my friend.

Good basic intro to positive azimuth uniform layout not taking into account terrain incline/decline. In tactical/scout tracking we use known measurements off of carbine barrel end to mag well,boot length, length of ammunition or other gear etc. This type of stuff will never be spot on accurate but can definitely help with hasty movements into various positions and returns to start while implementing at least some level of dependability while using other navigation methods simultaneously.

Thanks, but the terrain variations were accounted for in the beginning of the video, by doing the pace count test in a variety of conditions- flat, hill (up and down), both unloaded and loaded and then calculating the average. It works very well and is used in real world professional situations.

@@EnduranceRoom that’s nowhere near as accurate as using an inclinometer on each leg if it changes. If it’s relatively consistent then it’s fairly adequate but with any significant incline or decline that’s not accounted for the overall accuracy will greatly suffer. Just sayin. We actually do train public service agencies (tactical LE,search and rescue etc) daily as well as apply them in real world professional situations using various methods.This method being one of them. In Minnesota this week,relatively flat. Next week it’s Tennessee. Not so much. The methods of application will vary. Nice video.

I really enjoyed this video! I’ve probably watched it 4-5 times now. I really like the fact that you take us along with you out in the woods rather than just sitting indoors at your kitchen table. Could you tell me what state you typically do this in? I would really enjoy doing this with someone. It would be a lot of fun.

Thank you. Adirondacks. Honestly, the best place to do this, is right at home, get comfortable with the basics, and then take it out and expand. It’s not hard, just takes practice. Well worth developing this skill

I always learn a lot from you. I just don’t understand why you would build a map on the ground. You can’t take it with you so why would you not use paper? I’m very new at all of this so thanks for sharing.

Thank you. The idea is if you are in an area that you don’t have a map, you can walk in and walk back out. If you track your data, you can use it to find a new route out or to a previous location. It is really powerful when you see it for yourself. I am planning a follow up to this for the paper map, but will try and expand on this style as well.

Thanks! The one at the beginning is a Duck Hunter camo shirt. I got it at an Army Navy store in PA. The shirt at the end is the FSB summer suit from Russian Cold Camo

I don't know if it's possible to semi-automate the recording of the steps and the changes of orientation, by a mechanical device (maybe a tool integrating a pedometer and a compass which could records the info when the user pushes a button), as a backup for the GPS.

Possibly. But this is about using the minimum tools that people should have on hand (a compass) to help them stay out of trouble

I did one last year called Survival Belt Rig. I could probably do another one, as it has changed quite a bit.
