The Coghlan’s Map Compass is a high-performance navigational tool designed specifically for those who venture off the beaten path. Featuring a transparent baseplate, this compass is engineered to be used directly on top of topographical maps, allowing for seamless route planning and coordinate plotting. With its jeweled needle for friction-free movement and specialized scales, it is the ultimate companion for hikers, scouts, and survivalists who require more than just basic directional guidance.
Features
-
See-Through Baseplate: The clear plastic base allows you to see the map details underneath, making it easy to align the compass with grid lines and terrain features.
-
Rotating, Liquid-Filled Housing: The needle is housed in a liquid-damped chamber to ensure stability and rapid settling, while the rotating bezel allows for precise bearing adjustments.
-
Jeweled Needle Movement: Features a high-quality jeweled bearing that minimizes friction, providing smoother and more accurate needle rotation than standard recreational compasses.
-
Luminous Pointer: Equipped with light-gathering luminous markers on the needle and housing, facilitating critical navigation during dawn, dusk, or low-light operations.
-
Multi-Scale Measurement: The baseplate is laser-etched with three essential scales for professional map work:
-
Inches for standard measurements.
-
Millimeters for precision metric plotting.
-
1:25,000 Scale for direct distance calculations on standard topographic maps.
-
-
Integrated Magnifier (Deluxe Models): Often includes a built-in magnifying glass to help identify small map symbols and fine contour lines.
