Which direction?

Micro Navigation is one of the hardest forms of navigation. It is an art that takes time and good observation. It is the ability to find small objects accurately with ease, even when they cannot be seen. For this you rely on a combination of pacing, timing, bearings, and almost all other navigation methods.

It also requires common sense. For example if your feet are in flowing water you are most likely in a stream or river. So it is all about observing your surroundings to prove your location. Many a time you will find the magnifying lens of a compass vital for this.
