The Original Master Navigator CourseGain the skill of navigating effectively, essential in the backcountry. Every year, many individuals seek the great outdoors for recreational purposes. Sadly, thousands of them become lost, resulting in extensive Search and Rescue operations to locate and return them to safety or, in worse cases, to recover their bodies if not found in time. Often copied, this course is the original Master Navigator Course developed by a Former Army Ranger and Green Beret.
Essential Map Reading and Land Nav Skills
It is important to recognize that while technology can be a helpful tool for navigation, it should not be solely relied upon. In fact, many sources warn against becoming too dependent on technology and instead emphasize the importance of having basic map reading and land navigation skills and tools. This is because technology can fail and may require a signal or power source, making it unreliable in certain situations. Therefore, it is essential to have alternative methods of navigation available.

This comprehensive Master Navigator course will take your abilities to a comparable standard as the Army Rangers and Green Berets and then exceed the level of training provided to them. It was expertly crafted by Joshua Enyart, a former Ranger and Green Beret who has also instructed Air Force, Marine Corps, and Navy Special Operations Forces, making him the ultimate mentor to assist you in achieving this elite status.
