Dan,

Thanks for the tidbits! I really liked the watch compass!

One site that I really like is a slightly more in-depth lesson on using a
compass alone and/or with a map at:

http://web.nps.navy.mil/~navigate/html/tutorial/usecomp.htm

that some might find enlightening. There are three pages linked (use the
lesson links at the bottom of the first and second pages).

Have fun!

Marty
