Silva Compasses & Accessories-Ranger Compass

SILVA compass Ranger is a traditional baseplate compass commonly used by hikers mountaineers, backpackers, and hunters. It has all the features you need for your adventure.

If you are looking for a basic, yet functional compass for your outdoor adventure, Ranger should be your choice. Ranger features a rubber grip for easy handling and comes with a use-anywhere declination scale inside the capsule, a magnifying lens, and baseplate map-measuring in mm and scales of 1:25k, 1:50k. The baseplate is curved-up at the back-end for perfect fit in the hand. The red/black north-south lines in the capsule bottom ensures easy and safe settling. The distinct arrow and scales/markings in a clear contemporary font combined with lots of transparency in the baseplate makes navigating easier – when activated in light, the luminous markings enable nighttime navigation. The needle is made from the finest Swedish steel with high quality magnetic features.

This compass model is equipped with a detachable scale lanyard that works like a ruler. The scale lanyard has two scales on it; 1:25, and 1:50, which makes it easier to measure the distance of your hike. Since it’s soft and bendable, it’s easy to place directly on to your route on the map when you are out in the terrain – or when you are planning for your next adventure.
