Very nice compass for the price. It is not cheap but it certainly is comparative to the much more expensive ones. I love the fact that I can adjust the declination with a tiny flathead (included) so I don't have to constantly add or subtract the difference in degrees from true to magnetic north. Also provides an accurate angle of the slope you are on or looking at for avalanche predictability. Excellent and accurate sighting and the ring actually glows in the dark along with the red north arrow. However, if you need to use the glow in the dark ring and arrow, you probably should be using a headlamp.
