For many folks, having a GPS-capable device or system is a must. How else would they be able to get around otherwise? But there may come a time when a GPS is out of reach, leaving one nothing else to rely on but their wits. What do you then? Curl up and leave yourself to the elements, or make use of your natural sense of direction? Of course you’ll choose the latter, unless you’re also one of those folks who don’t have a sense of direction. Luckily, it’s not too late to learn it.
Follow these tips to make navigating without a GPS a little less stressful and a lot more fun. (h/t to GearPatrol.com)
Sponsored solution from the Health Ranger Store: Lab-verified Nascent Iodine solution is a dietary supplement that provides your body with supplemental iodine to help protect your thyroid during radiation exposure. Nuclear accidents such as Fukushima (or nuclear war) can expose your body to radioactive iodine-131, a dangerous radioisotope. Pre-loading your system with stable iodine occupies the iodine receptor sites on your organs, causing your body to naturally expel radioactive iodine you may have been exposed to through air, food, water or milk products. This defensive strategy is recommended by nearly all health authorities, worldwide, including the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Discover more at this link.
As with anything, practice makes perfect. Don’t bum yourself out if you can’t find north at night or if you can’t tell up from down on a road map on your first try. Just keep at it and soon enough you’ll find yourself with a sense of direction that may just get you out of a tight spot.
