While GPS technology is a great tool for explorers, the reliability of a manual compass is an essential piece of equipment for anyone wandering the wilderness. Rothco has been outfitting military personnel for decades, manufacturing compact navigational tools that offer guidance when modern technology fails. Whether you're on an important mission or just practicing routine training exercises, being able to identify your location can be lifesaving. Slip a compact Rothco orienteering compass into your pack or pocket, or use the convenient lanyard to hang the compass from your neck. Unlike more simple compasses that can only be relied on for cardinal directions, the orienteering compass has fine graduations and a magnifying glass to help guide you. A liquid-filled pointer and easy-turning dial make these compasses simple to use. Added sighting mirrors allow you to view both your target and bearing simultaneously, making for more efficient use. Designed for use in any conditions, no pack should be without a Rothco compass.
