The Rothco Military Marching Compass keeps a topographic map and a trail guide working together when the terrain is new to you. Its liquid-filled dial minimizes excessive swing and wobble, so the needle gives you a steadier read while you check your heading against the map.
A slide ruler handles measurements as you plot the route, and the magnifying glass brings map details and fine print into focus. The aluminum cast case is built for rugged outdoor use and protects against impacts and bumps along the way.
Why it works:
- A steadier needle on the move: You get a steadier read, because the liquid-filled design reduces swing and wobble for improved readability.
- Map details you can actually read: Contour lines and small print come into view through the integrated magnifying glass, built in for interpreting topographic maps or trail guides.
- Route plotting in one tool: Measurements and calculations happen right on the compass with the slide ruler, so you can plot your route with accuracy.
- A case that shrugs off knocks: The aluminum cast case offers protection against impacts, bumps and other hazards met on outdoor expeditions.
- A color that matches your kit: Choose Black, Olive Drab or Tan to blend with the gear and apparel you already carry.
