Brunton 8097 Compass
The Brunton Eclipse Baseplate Compass features map measurement scales and Brunton's patented circle-over-circle alignment system to help you find your way in the backcountry. With 1:24 USGS and UTM scales on the baseplate, this compass helps with map reading. The circle alignment system means you won't accidentally read a bearing in reverse—just align the red circle that indicates north over your compass dial circle and go. Brunton shaped the Eclipse Compass to fit comfortably in your left hand. The included lanyard has a built-in safety whistle, in case you need help.
Bottom Line: Don't go into the backcountry without a map and the Brunton Eclipse Baseplate Compass.
