Navigation Gold: Avoid Obstacles with This Simple Compass Trick

Survival In The Forest
Navigation doesn’t need complicated math, formulas, or advanced land nav training.

In this video, I break down a simple, field-proven navigation method that allows you to bypass obstacles like cliffs, rivers, thick brush, or no-go terrain using 90° and 60° offsets — without doing calculations in your head.

You’ll also learn a new trick using the clinometer or declination scale on your compass, turning features most people ignore into an easy, repeatable navigation shortcut. This method works with common baseplate compasses and keeps navigation fast, accurate, and stress-free in real-world conditions.

Whether you’re:
• Backpacking
• Hunting
• Bushcraft camping
• Training land navigation
• Preparing for emergency or survival situations
