[pct-l] compasses for backcountry use

Look on line.  E-bay, Amazon, etc.  They are much cheapoer thatn going to REI or other retail.
Just a simple compass with a little line on the face for declination should do.

Anyone have a compass in particular that they are fond of? I was thinking
of using a suunto either m3 leader or m3 global?

I was able to find a navigation course on the east coast in virginia that
I'll be taking this weekend as a preparation for the PCT. For AT thru
hikers, its actually in Daleville near the I-81 interchange! I'm so amped
about it, but need to find a compass with adjustable declination for use in
the course. Thinking that the m3 global may make more sense so that I wont'
have to buy a compass again down the road.


thanks in advance for the wsidom and guidance
