Bearing and Course

Pointers

The Oregon can use either a bearing

pointer or a course pointer on the

compass. The bearing pointer

indicates the direction to your

destination, and the course pointer

indicates your relationship to a

course line leading to the destination.

To select a bearing or course pointer,

The bearing pointer points to

your destination, regardless of the

direction you are moving. If the

bearing pointer points toward the

top of the compass, you are traveling

directly toward your destination. If

it points any other direction, turn

toward that direction until the arrow

is pointing toward the top of the

compass.
