DANGER AREAS AND OBSTACLES 10 Min To Better Land Navigation Part 4 How to incorporate pace count while avoiding Danger Areas and Obstacles during Land Navigation
Dave, I'm loving these tutorials. You're breaking down the information into "bite sized" chunks, making it soooo much easier to understand. Thank you for all you do for us!!!!
I was a days walk into a wilderness area, stopped and hung up a waypoint marker. I walked out and around checking the area. Turned my back for a minute and when I turned back around my marker was gone. I made it back to where I had placed my waypoint marker and it was gone. Days later I found out some mountain folk took my marker. I got it back along with a fine meal and some good booze. Thanks Dave.
Did you folks get it??? Will you remember it tomorrow? Download, take notes... Practice! It's not hard, you can do it in a park. Or even a 'carpark!' (get some witches hats and manoeuvre around em'!) What I learned in orienteering was only learned by - Practice! This video is so filthy good Dave. Legend buddy. Cheers! P.S. that rule of thumb video is indispensable for hunting with a bow, etc. Especially since I don't use mechanical bow sights. I Hunt by feel, shoot by instinct. Learning the rule of thumb technique, which has been around since - forever, tunes you into instinctive shooting, plus it gave me an intimate feel of my weapon. I no longer take shots that I used to think I would make but didn't, and a kill shot is all the more so assured. (I eat when I need to and not just when I'm lucky. And this IS survival.)

I would like to know if there is nothing you can see ahead of you to mark. For example, in a thicket with high brush, cime to a cliffed area and across is a bunch of brush or saplings close together that look alike
I'm confused about the width of the tree in the estimate .. If you sight the tree with one eye and then the other, the "# of thumbs" of that offset would (should?) not be affected by any feature of the tree other than its distance? Is that clarified in your other videos on the topic?
Always heard it as a "90⁰ offset"... muchless of a mouth full Now, the thumb thing, that, i would be interested in an explaination on how your thumb is related to your pace. And, what considerations go into effect with that?
This is interesting , learning to track distance by paces . I'm a little confused however , if the premise is we have no map but we're trying to get from point A to a known point B wouldn't we need to map this as we go to give the paces and directions some waypoints to track for the return trip ? Also if point B is at an unknown position we will be traveling around searching and it will not be optimal distance traveled once located . How do we allow for that without a map ?
If you are actually self mapping it doesn’t hurt and having that in notes is smart anyway to match the second horizontal as I said for a double check. As of now are only doing this to stay found mapping comes later

This is some new stuff for me, thanks Dave
You make land navigation so easy to understand. Thanks Dave
❤❤ thank you for teaching us your amazing work!!! Absolutely love your channel and content!!! Thank you so much brother Dave Canterbury!!!❤❤

You use Gaia for land nav? I'm just curious cause I like how the app tracked your progress.
FIRST!

How do we allow for that without a map ?
Watch the next video releasing at 6pm tonight
Why would you not count the sideways paces? This would allow you to ‘map’ the obstacle in terms of size and location?
If you are actually self mapping it doesn’t hurt and having that in notes is smart anyway to match the second horizontal as I said for a double check. As of now are only doing this to stay found mapping comes later
Thanks Dave
