Navigation Skills for Walkers, Hikers and Ramblers

  - Tick Feature

Identifiable features that are expected to be seen on the way to a Target.

 

Walkers should identify tick features along a section of an intended route before setting off towards the Target.

 

These are then mentally ticked off as each is passed.

 

Tick features can be anything – e.g. a stream junction, a section of steep ground, the edge of a wood etc.

 

If a tick feature does not appear where it is expected, then its likely that the walker is off-route.
