[QUOTE="rc62burke, post: 216734, member: 800"] HI All Please remember that if you intend on providing information on "Survival Tips" that you should ensure that the info you provide is correct. The above method to find "Due South" via the Southern Cross is Incorrect, in such that the description of extending the line from the 2 pointers is wrong, you need to Bisect the pointers & extend the line at right angles to them & where this line extends & crosses the line drawn from the line drawn from the southern cross is the point from which you draw a vertical line to the horizon, have a look at this link [url]http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/diagram/7486/navigating-by-the-southern-cross[/url] This is not having a shot at anyone just a reminder to be aware of the info you post. cheers Lee [/QUOTE]
