Navigate with Confidence: Get Outdoors with these New Products!
Today we’re excited to add two great outdoor products to the ITS Store. The new ITS Land Navigation Starter Pack gives you the tools to start reading and navigating with topographical maps.
Another great addition to the ITS Store is the Vargo Titanium Emergency Whistle. This lightweight, durable whistle also fits perfectly into our ITS Mini Survival Kit!
ITS Land Navigation Starter Pack
Land Navigation is an important skill-set to have in your toolbox, but getting started can be a little daunting. With all the different systems and tools, it’s difficult to know which direction to head.
We’ve taken out the guesswork with the ITS Land Navigation Starter Pack. It includes reference guides and tools, the all important protractor and everything you’ll need to make your own pace count beads. Just grab a local topographic map, a compass and hit the trail!
When you pick up your kit, be sure to check out our comprehensive article on learning how to navigate with the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS). The article also describes in detail how to use the included UTM Slot Tool (protractor) for MGRS.
When constructing your Pace Count Beads, save a paracord gut for tying to the center hole of your protractor to plot your direction using the outer compass rose.

Vargo Titanium Emergency Whistle
A good Emergency Whistle is a must have for any kit or pack and the Vargo Titanium Emergency Whistle is one of the best on the market. This 100+ decibel titanium whistle’s pealess design ensures that it won’t break or fail where other whistles might.
Weighing in at just 0.1 ounce, the Vargo Emergency Whistle can fit just about anywhere without adding substantial weight or bulk. A 30 inch cord is included with each whistle that features reflective weave for enhanced visibility.
