Having a compass in your pocket could save your life. Before embarking on your journey into the bush take note of where the main roads are in conjunction to where you are going. If you get lost you can then use a compass to help guide you out of the bush and to a main road.
A small price to pay for added piece of mind and safety when venturing outdoors.
When using this compass allow time for the needle to settle to get correct bearing. The compass should be held so the needle is as horizontally flat as possible so it's movement is not restricted by the compasses plastic case.
