The main focus of Nav2 Field Day is practical application of navigation skills presented via the TCS Nav courses. This won't be a high mileage day. It is important that you come prepared for cold or windy weather and rugged terrain. Most of the route will be off-trail. You may be picking branches out of your teeth by the time we're done..
There will be an informational webinar scheduled for the Thursday evening preceding the Saturday field day. An invitation will be sent to registered participants on the Monday prior. During the Thursday evening webinar, we will share/discuss the meeting place and time for Saturday field day.
Required Equipment
Come prepared as for any CMC dayhike, with hiking essentials and dressed for inclement weather.
You will need a compass (preferably mirrored sighting compass with adjustable declination), plotting exercise worksheet from Nav1 course, and map from student packet mailed from CMC.
