    Default new member here but trying to learn maps

    Hi everyone. I'm someone who is just getting started on Orienteering! So being new to the field I've been studying map and compass reading with my new tools and can use some assistance understanding some simple random parts please.

    For example my compass has two stencil cutouts for marking the map, triangle and circle. I do not know what each e would be used for on a map! Is there a universal makings used for these and other symbols? Please help.

    Thank you!
