Ready to upgrade your map-reading abilities? If you would really like it if that “topo map” looked a bit less like an abstract painting — this program is for you! Winter is a great time to practice map reading because it’s easier to see the land. Learn how to read a topographic map by constructing a 3D model.
Meets some requirements for BSA Orienteering and BSA Geocaching; and GSUSA Cadettes Trailblazing. Schedule a meeting at a later time for BSA merit badge counselor Sarah Wolf to sign off on your blue card (email: mccloudnp@hcparks.net).
