## 🧭 Winter Navigation Drill — Map & Compass Basics 🛡️

(Private Training Anchor – not a public RSVP event)

Maps don’t just show where you are — they teach how to think, plan, and adapt.
This session refreshes key Land Navigation skills with a winter focus: how cold weather, shorter daylight, and terrain changes affect your route planning and compass work.
Each verified-member circle is coordinated for readiness, pacing, and environment.
We’ll review map setup, declination, distance pacing, and field scenario exercises that prepare you for real-world navigation challenges.
