Thread: Map and Compass Night Navigation

Bloody hell, I find it hard enough to walk through the bush up here in daylight, I try very hard not to do it in the dark! Navigation is not the issue, it's the supple jack etc.

Same, the number of holes and tomos I've fallen into in the daytime hidden by swathes of kiekie! I wouldn't be keen to try at night.

Many many many years ago a family friend took me for a hunt in kaimais. It got dark and going ok but I having shit of time in the supplejack,then found a large hole in front of me so called out for help.Phil came back to get me and strangely enough he was in bottom of hole...for some time I had been clambering through vines like demented Tarzan and was now 20 feet off the ground.
