The SILVA Expedition series is designed for experienced users and professionals. The Expedition series has been a world leader in accuracy, precision and durability for many years. The SILVA Expedition series comes with two completely new features: a Slope card and a Scale lanyard.

SILVA Expedition S features an easy-to-handle Dryflex™ case, silicone rubber feet for precision map work, detachable safety lanyards, luminous markings for nighttime viewing, a magnifying glass, map measurement scales in mm or inches, 1:25,000, 1:50,000 and GPS scales, and built-in adjusters for magnetic declination (including permanent local adjustment). The Expedition S can also measure the map to 1:40,000, has both a clinometer for measuring slope angle and a 45° angle assist on the mirror sight function.

The slope map is great for both detecting avalanche risk and determining the difficulty of your trip. Knowing the slope allows you to also assess any additional distance you may need to travel due to the steepness. The ladder strap has two scales on it; 1:25, and 1:50, making it easy to measure the distance of your hike. Since it is soft and pliable, it is easy to place directly on your route on the map. The new graphics include a more distinct arrow (Expedition) and a more contemporary font.

If you need a traditional baseplate compass with premium features, the Expedition should be your choice. If the terrain calls for a mirror-sighted compass, the Expedition S is your ideal companion.
