When time is critical.
Emergency Latitude/Longitude Ruler
Be ready to provide air rescue crews with critical latitude and longitude information!
Most backcountry travelers use the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) system for planning and navigation; helicopter and air rescue crews use the lat/long system. Our Lat/Long Ruler was designed by mountain guides and cartographers to help you translate critical location coordinates when it matters most, in an emergency. Paper light and thin, it disappears easily inside a Brooks-Range Field Organizer until you need it.
Rulers included for scales commonly used for topo maps in Europe, North America, and the Pacific Rim.

Thanks for forwarding on this product info… looks good.
It’s been great to see your map readers in so many places, including REI I believe!! I do rave about them and I believe them to be one of the better tools (alright, the best!) out there for map work. I wonder how the ‘guide’ version will do.
I’m in salt lake city but not sure if I will actually get to the OR show, if I do I will surely look you up.
best regards
Tim

Overall – a great product.
A simpler version with fewer features (scales) would work for my boy scouts.

The map tool, guide cards, and field book cover were great and made things like creating daily tour plans much easier.
