I just tried my first solo bush whack with a map and compass, and I have some questions.
How should use my compass properly? I was using my mirror compass and tried to use the mirror to be as accurate as possible. I basically used a tree as a landmark and walked to it. But the problem was i would have to do this every 10-20 meters, so it made the hike very slow.
Is it usually this hard to bush whack? There were so many little trees close by each other.
Do you guys every use bear bells? I forgot to get some so I would sing or whistle as I hiked.
