Geocache Description:


CACHE BEHIND ROCK.

PLEASE MAKE SURE THE LID OF THIS CACHE IS PROPERLY RESEALED AND REHIDE IT THE WAY YOU FOUND IT!

In order to keep quality items in caches, please state what you removed from the cache and what you put into it when you log it on our cache page.

Presume all compass bearings are TRUE. USE 19 DEG. EAST DECLINATION.

Please note: 19 deg. East declination is only applicable on a small portion of Vancouver Island, as declination varies with distance, and is constantly changing as the magnetic pole is constantly drifting.

So, in most cases, “TRUE” North wouldn’t really be “TRUE”, as it would vary depending on location. However if we all use 19 deg. declination, then we will all be looking at the same thing.

Make sure you are well away from metal objects, when using any compass. At least 20 meters from a car and one half a meter from a wrist watch.

Cheap compasses won’t ‘cut’ it. You need to see individual degrees.

This is about all you can expect from a compass!
