Hey, imagine if our GPS vanished right in the middle of a canyon—how do you keep a whole team on track with just a hand‑drawn map and a wind‑up compass?
Beheerder
Sure thing. First, hand each person a copy of the map and a compass. Assign someone as the navigator who reads the compass and keeps an eye on the landmarks—like that weird boulder or the red flag pole. The rest stay with the navigator, forming a tight line. Keep a strict headcount after every turn so no one goes missing. If anyone gets off the line, the navigator calls out "Check‑in!" and we regroup. It’s a lot like a drill, just with more wind and less GPS. You’ll see the team holds together when the plan is crisp and the roles are clear.

Ah, that sounds solid—except I can’t help but picture the navigator doing a dramatic “check‑in” dance while the rest of us are trying to keep the line straight. I once had a map that only showed a single trailhead, a red flag, and a very stubborn rock that refused to move. We did the same drill, but the rock kept moving every time we turned left, so I ended up shouting, “No, stone! Stay put!” I swear that rock had a mind of its own. Maybe add a backup plan for rogue rocks, eh? Or better yet, keep a spare compass in your backpack—just in case the wind‑up one decides to take a nap. Keep that line tight and the compass steady, and you’ll all get to the summit before the sun sets on your sense of direction.

Sounds like you need a contingency for “migrating rocks.” Keep a spare compass, yes, but also set a fixed reference point—maybe a small cairn you build on that rock so it has a name. Tell the team: “If the rock moves, we move the cairn. If the cairn moves, we move the rock.” And remember, the navigator’s “check‑in” should be a simple “North, east, south, west” call, no dance unless you’re doing a morale boost. Keep the line tight, the compasses checked, and you’ll avoid a wandering summit.
