WINGS: Map and Compass

Build your outdoor navigation skills at Porter West Preserve with our Women in Nature Gaining Skills Map and Compass Workshop. During this event, you’ll learn the basics of land navigation, including reading topographic maps, understanding compass bearings, orienting yourself in the field, and planning routes across varied terrain. After learning the basics, you’ll put your skills into practice on a challenge course across the preserve, honing your ability to navigate confidently and accurately. This hike is a part of Women in Nature Gaining Skills; to learn more about this organization and its partnership with Sycamore Land Trust, visit WINGS on Facebook
