So if you're looking for an affordable, do everything compass, this one is perfect. I've used the Silva pro for years, and this one does even more, and is simpler in taking bearings since you can use the small mirror to line up your bearings. The 2 inclinometers are really nice, a must for staying safe in avalanche terrain. And if you're like most people who don't use a compass everyday, the little cheat sheets that pack behind it under the protective case will keep your skills intact when you really need to remember how the functions all tie together.
