Silva Ranger S Compass Directional Navigation Aid

About the SILVA Ranger S Compass

SILVA’s Ranger S Compass has undergone an upgrade. Improved graphics are more distinct, including a defined arrow, making the tool easier to read. Additionally the Dryflex rubber grip improves handling in wet conditions.

With a scratch resistant base plate, magnetic declination scale and lanyard this is ideal for those looking at getting to grips with map navigation. Endorsed by the DofE for youth activities the Ranger is a perfect navigation aid for those heading into the outdoors, mountain capable for all eventualities.

The compass now comes with a scale lanyard. Two scales can be found on the lanyard, miles and kilometers, easily placeable onto your map and always on hand allowing you to measure distance accurately.

As a mirror sighting compass the Ranger S allows your eyes to remain on the horizon whilst not having to look down to determine direction. Consequently it is ideal for directional navigation across long distances and on barren terrain.

With a magnifier the Ranger ensures you understand every detail of topographic terrain displayed on a map. Glow in the dark markings on the North display and on the direction of travel allow the compass to be used in low light conditions. Additionally the larger length of the ranger is beneficial in improving accuracy when moving across terrain.
