The Silva Expedition Compass is designed specifically for experienced users and professionals. If you're seeking a baseplate compass with a wide range of features like a slope card and a scale lanyard, the Silva Expedition is the perfect choice.
It incorporates a user-friendly rubber housing, silicon rubber feet, a detachable safety-release distance lanyard, luminous markings for nighttime visibility, a magnifying lens, a clinometer for measuring slope angles, map-measuring scales in both millimeters and inches, and GPS scales of 1:25,000, 1:40,000, and 1:50,000. Additionally, it features a built-in adjuster for magnetic declination, including the ability for permanent local adjustment.
It's crucial to exercise caution in steep terrain, as the likelihood of avalanches increases when the slope exceeds 30 degrees. The slope card provided with this compass will assist you in identifying this potential risk. The detachable scale lanyard also serves as a measuring tool. The scale lanyard incorporates two scales: 1:25 and 1:50, allowing for easier distance measurement during your hike. Thanks to its flexibility you can effortlessly position it directly onto a map while navigating through the terrain or while planning your next adventure.
