5 Star Rating

Small, inexpensive and accurate.

By Ranked #55 - Life Jackets and Safety Gear January 25, 2011

This may be the low end of Suunto's compass lineup but it really shines as a backup to your gps or as an inexpensive must-have that you can throw in your pack and forget until you need it. Remember, you should never be without a manual compass in the backwoods (or a map either...) Now you have no excuse, so buy one and make it back even if your batteries fail on your gps. Oh yeah, and please learn how to use it; manual compasses have been used for longer than anyone needs to remember and they work quite well.
