Explain How To Make A Ghillie Suit
A Shemagh can be cut down to create a camouflaged ghillie suit; well at the very least you can make the hood. A ghillie suit, also known as a yowie suit, or camo tent, is camouflage clothing designed to resemble heavy foliage. Typically, it is a net or cloth garment covered in loose strips of burlap, cloth or twine.
It is sometimes made to look like leaves and twigs, and optionally augmented with scraps of foliage from the environment you’re in.
Snipers and hunters may wear a ghillie suit to blend into their surroundings, concealing themselves from enemies.

These methods, however, will give you only a general direction. You can come up with a more accurate direction if you know the terrain of the surrounding territory.

Section 1: Sun Navigation

The earth's relationship to the sun can help you to determine your direction on the earth. The sun always rises in the east and sets in the west, but not exactly due east or due west.

There is also some seasonal variation. In the northern hemisphere, the sun will be due south when at its highest point in the sky, or when an item casts no appreciable

    It is warmer in the summer than in the winter in Ohio. When it is summer in Ohio the sun is at its furthest north point and when the sun is at its most southern point it is winter in Ohio. In summer the Earth is inclined toward the sun and sunlight shines almost straight down. The noon summer sun is higher in the sky and the winter sun is lower as it casts longer winter shadows. The summer sun rises in the northwest and sets in the same direction. Thus, the sun spends more than 12 hours in the sky during the summer which is why it is warmer in the summer in Ohio. The sun is almost completely direct on the northern latitudes during the summer in Ohio causing warmer temperatures. Many people believe that the temperature changes between summer…

    The sun and the moon form part of our universe, where they both hold their own power and value. The sun is in the center of the solar system with nine planets moving around it. The light given from the sun helps us experience the day and the night. After the sun, the moon is the the brightest object in the sky. Though the light that shines at night does not originate from the moon, it is reflected by sunlight. Their differences from each other are responsible for the life that we live in this Earth. Knowing about the sun and moon we can relate their relationship to the Spanish and the Aztec. The Aztec hold the position of the sun. When they first settled on the swampy island called Tenochtitlan, it became…

    The sun is located within the Milky Way galaxy in the outer arm called Orion. This galaxy is 100 thousand light years across and our sun is located on the Orion arm. The evidence of this is we can see the arm from earth. If we were at the center of the universe we would see all white. If we were at the edge of the galaxy we would see stars on one side and blackness on the other. If we were above or below the disk we would see a line of stars. We learned this in our lab (mapping the Milky Way). After mapping the stars on the H-R diagram we saw that our sun is located on…
