I'm naturally blessed with an exceptional sense of direction and aced every land navigation course I ever took in the ARMY. As a kid I was always aware of landmarks and pointing them out to my parents as we would drive along. Its a skill that I have had all my life. One drunken night in Tulsa, I managed to find my way back to Camp Gruber based on the radio towers I had used a landmark when I got into town earlier that evening.Land Navigation is like anything else, the only way to get better is to practice. You dont have to run the traditional pole to pole courses to practice. You can do something as simple as go to a section of land and try to navigate from one corner to the other. Or drive along one side of the section and tie marker to a fence post and go to the opposite side of the section and try to hike a line that you think will put you on top of it.</blockquote>
