Great ruler for lat long maps, saves time having to mark out your own from the legend. All the extras the seller includes are excellent. The guides, worksheets and personalized magnetic declination card, printed on write in the rain paper, are phenomenal.

New to hiking I didn't know which one to get to assist me in learning to plot locations. This is perfect and you get so much more than this. It actually came with instructions and small map with questions and answers to teach you how to use it. I will use this and continue to use this company. Thank you for time you put into you service and customers!!! They also added your current deviation based on your shipping zip code!

The UTM grid in particular is much better than the one I've been using. I really only need 1:24000 scale, so this one is perfect. There were also some unexpected docs about declination (specific to my lat/long), UTM (with quizzes!), and ruler usage. Very nice.

I expect it to be much better than the one I was issued in the Army.

As a long-time aviation navigator and quadrangle user, I have to say this is a wonderful device and a great value. Previously I used an old multi-scale device called Topo Companion that was plenty confusing. This one-scale ruler is a joy to use. I am using it to transfer GPS coordinates onto paper quad maps. The first use on three locations got me within a stone's throw of where I was on the ground. I recommend you pick an easily visible location on the map, get the GPS figures on the ground and go back with the Map Ruler to the quad for practice. I am using quad maps for research on historical and geological YouTube videos on my channel Malcolm Marzo. The Maptools ruler also includes a package of other tools and useful information for map users. What a value for map geeks!

I must say I am overly impressed with the amount of personal attention I was given. I recieved not only exactly what I ordered in a timely fashion, but I also recieved an information sheet on write the rain paper, with declination settings, and instructions for my area. I also received information on working with grids, UTM, MGRS, and USNG, which is absolutely awesome as I have been studying this for a while now. I will keep all this as reference material in my map book. They have a website for those who are interest in some great reference material as well, maptools.com. I can't recommend these folks enough. Thanks for a great product!

Retired from the military and always used MGRS for navigation. Decided to learn UTM. Ran across an instruction video for plotting a location on a USGS map using UTM, this ruler was being used so I ordered it.The ruler itself is a great product, but the seller also includes map tools and instructions on how to use the ruler as well as how to determine coordinates.Very thoughtful design, great quality product and additional tools included= great value for the money. Highly recommended and at a great price!

Great add to your day pack. I use this to prepare off trail hikes when using my map. The GPS is when I'm moving. Maps are great for planning.
