The hunter may be in a valley where it appears to be in aperfect calm. In such a situation, one should spot some treelocated on a ridge and watch it for a few minutes. There areusually winds blowing on the ridges and the hunter, in mostinstances, can discern the general wind direction by watchingthe trees on the ridges.
DIRECTIONS AND LOCATIONS
The bowhunter should, at all times, know where he is andabout how far he is from camp or from a road. When I wasgoing to school I learned geography by watersheds. No teacherever taught it to me; no one ever told me about it; neither didI ever read about it. It was just one of those things that grewon me. This has been the best training I have ever had, and ithas given me a more comprehensive picture of the geographyof any area that I have traveled than anything else.
