ABOUT
Take your wilderness navigation to the next level with the SILVA Compass Ranger S. Engineered for multi-day backpackers, night-orienteering racers, survivalists, and serious backcountry explorers, this high-performance mirror-sighting compass combines the field accuracy of a sighting mirror with enhanced luminous properties optimized for low-light and tactical night use.
The Ranger S is heavily optimized for technical field tracking, allowing you to take hyper-accurate bearings across vast distances without losing sight of your target:
Mirror Sighting System: Features a rugged sighting mirror with a built-in sighting hole, allowing you to align your target landmark in the terrain while simultaneously viewing your compass capsule orientation.
45-Degree Assistance: Outfitted with 45-degree angle assistance lines on the mirror function, greatly simplifying lateral offsets and complex navigation grids.
Low-Visibility Illumination: Engineered with high-intensity luminous markings that glow brightly in the dark, making it the perfect choice for night hiking, pre-dawn ascents, or low-visibility tactical missions.
Ditch the guesswork when calculating trail distances. The Ranger S includes SILVA's innovative soft, bendable scale lanyard:
Trace Twisting Trails: Because the fabric lanyard is completely pliable, you can bend and curve it directly over winding rivers, mountain switchbacks, and technical trails on your topographic map.
Instant Calculation: Printed with clear 1:25,000 and 1:50,000 scales, it allows you to instantly read the true ground distance of your planned trek without needing a rigid plastic ruler.
The SILVA 1-2-3 System®: Specifically optimized for rapid, error-free navigation. Because you don't need to constantly lift your eyes from the compass capsule to evaluate the terrain, your bearing accuracy is dramatically improved.
Dryflex™ High-Grip Bezel: The housing is clad in an all-weather Dryflex™ rubber grip, allowing for smooth, slip-free capsule rotation even when wearing heavy winter gloves or operating in freezing rain.
Friction-Free Needle: Features a premium sapphire jewel bearing that allows the steel needle to move smoothly and settle instantly on Magnetic North without sticking.
Baseplate Map Metrics: The transparent acrylic baseplate is molded with high-contrast, contemporary graphics, offering map-measuring scales in millimeters, inches, 1:25k, and 1:50k ratios, paired with an integrated internal declination scale.
