North Is..⇡

NOTE: Depending on the time this can have up to a 35° error.

If you’re lost in the Northern Hemisphere:
Move your watch so that 12 o’clock is pointed to the left.
Then, move your arm so the hour hand points at the sun.
The spot halfway between the hour-hand and the 12 o’clock is SOUTH.

If you’re lost in the Southern Hemisphere:
Point your watch with 12 o’clock pointed at the sun.
The spot halfway between that and the current placement of the hour-hand is NORTH.

I just got back from hiking nearly 100 miles on the Appalachian Trail. Specifically the 100 miles in Shenandoah National Park in Virginia. More on this after I settle in a little.

I'm going to hike the AT for two weeks, its going to be awesome.
