Hike & trek compass advanced level

The SILVA Expedition is for experienced hikers and adventurers. Renowned for its high accuracy and durability, the EXPEDITION compass is equipped with new features, a lanyard with measuring scale and a clinometer for measuring slopes.

The SILVA Expedition compass is designed to be used with the SILVA Expedition

If you need a traditional baseplate compass with high-end features, the Expedition should be your choice. Comes with an easy-to-handle Dryflex case, silicone rubber feet for precision map work, removable safety cord, nighttime light markings, magnifying glass, slope angle clinometer, mm and inch map scales, 1:25,000, 1:50,000, and GPS scales, as well as integrated ranging devices for magnetic delineation (including permanent local ranging). The experiment can also measure at 1:40,000.

Determine avalanche risk:
The inclinometer is ideal for both determining avalanche risk and determining how difficult your trip will be. By knowing the slope, you can also estimate how much further you have to travel because of the slope. The scale cord has two scales, 1:25, and 1:50, making it easy to measure the distance of your hike. It is easily handled and folded making it easy to use and place on the map.

HAZARD CHARACTERISTICS:
Inclinometer: Measure avalanche risk, slopes and extra distance.
Removable scale cord with scales to measure longer distances. Magnifier for precise map work. Lighted beaconing allows for night navigation.
Rugged material withstands harsh conditions.
For advanced users

The compass is usable on the North Magnitude (NM) only.
