I am getting ready to do a little backpacking/camping here in Florida. Can anyone recommend a decent handheld compass at a fare price? It does not have to be top-notch just reliable in case I get lost in the backwoods. If you can provide a link to what you suggest I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance for help with this matter..... Have a safe and aware day. I live by situational awareness wherever I am........Glock 30 :) :)

If all you want it to do is point north, then almost any of the low-end handhelds will do the trick for about $10. Make and model don't start making a bit of difference until you start getting into the more expensive toys.

Thanks for the advice fellow CCW's....My trip went without a hitch, did not get lost just got cold....Had a great time with my buddy. Fishing, backpacking/hiking...It was extremley relaxing not having a T.V. or radio....The only technology I took was my cell Phone just in case.... Glock 30
