Hey, my name is Aaron and I’m a map reading and land navigation instructor in the British Army.

I have a passion for the outdoors and love to teach this subject. I’ve decided to write a series of posts teaching you the theory on the fundamentals of this very useful skill. I will also explain how to apply this knowledge to your practical skills to hopefully make you a more rounded navigator when out on the trails.

Please bear with me as I produce more content. Any feedback would be welcomed. All the best.
