The Silva Expedition S Compass is a durable and well designed compass with a 45-degree angle assistance on the mirror-sighting function.
Designed for use by experienced outdoor users and professionals, the Silva Expedition S Compass is accurate, precise and durable and comes with two completely new features: a Slope card and a Scale lanyard. The slope card is great both for detecting avalanche risk and for determining how challenging your journey will be. By knowing the slope you can also judge any extra distance that you need to go due to the slope. The scale lanyard has two scales on it; 1:25, and 1:50, which facilitates to measure the distance of your hike. Since its soft and bendable it’s easy to place it directly on to your route on the map. The new graphics contain a more distinct arrow (Expedition) and also a more contemporary font. The compass can also map-measure 1:40,000, has both a clinometer for measuring slope angle, and 45-degree angle assistance on the mirror-sighting function.
If you are in need of a traditional baseplate compass with high-end features, the Expedition should be your choice. If the terrain demands for a mirror sighting compass then this Expedition S is your optimal companion.
