### Set the map to the ground and everything becomes simple

Most navigation errors come from reading a map held the wrong way round. Turning the paper so it matches the ground fixes about half of all mistakes.

#### Setting the map

Turn the map until the features on it line up with what you can see. North is now wherever it happens to be, and that is fine.

#### Thumbing

Keep your thumb on where you are and move it as you go. It sounds trivial and it is the single habit that stops people getting lost.

#### Distance by time

At four kilometres an hour you cover a hundred metres every ninety seconds. Counting time beats counting paces on any real ground.
