Smartphone Nav on Red Hill on the First Day of Spring

Join us for a Smartphone Navigation Tutorial, on Red Hill, on the first day of spring 2024, that's Sunday 1st of September. Expect to be out and about for about three hours. dress for bushwalking and bring your lunch. We will gather near the now closed On Red restaurant at about 11AM. Bring your smartphone, your bushwalking nav app, and any other nav gadgets you would like to cross compare. We will start our smartphone apps, create a new database for our trip, select an electronic map, enter two waypoints, download map tiles, start our GPS and get a Fix, start tracking, put our phones in airplane mode, pin our nav app screen, then toddle towards Davidson Trig 750m. Expect slow going, much finger poking, many stops, and much chatter.
