Get your grid references right first time. It's quick and
convenient. A Where-Wolf grid reference finder means using
a map is even easier! |
| Position
the card on any Ordnance Survey map or other
map with 1:50 000 (2cm to 1km) or 1:25
000 (4cm to 1km) scales, and use the handy grid to
accurately locate a grid reference. |

| Where-wolf
cards are used by members of the armed forces, The Duke of Edinburgh's
Award Scheme, Mountain Rescue, the Scouts, schools outward bound
organisers and similar organisation's all round the world. |
When
locating map co-ordinates by eye, the contours and other markings
on the map can be visually misleading, making your estimated
reading inaccurate by 30 metres or more.
Eliminate this guess work with a where-wolf
and you'll also speed up the process! |
|
 |
| Use our
where-wolf card before you set out, to use grid references for
accurately plotting your route into your GPS. You can also use
it whilst out walking to locate your position on the map using
the coordinates provided by your GPS. |
| The
accuracy of your handheld GPS is wasted unless you can relate
it to your map. |

of the week: "The true traveller is he who goes on foot,
