Have a few questions. Trying to teach myself some land nav
I have a 1:24,000 topo of the area I’m scouting with full UTM grid overlay
I have a Garmin GPS
I have a Suunto MC 2G declination adjustable compass
to “calibrate” my compass to this map should I be adjusting the declination for true north, grid north, both???
if I’m taking bearings on the map using my compass the UTM grid lines would reference grid north. I’m a bit confused here.
im fine with using a UTM grid tool to get coordinates of areas I want to check out. But plotting the bearings/route from spot to spot has me confused.
