How to find North using the stars (Northern Hemisphere)
1. Orientate yourself
Find the “Big Dipper” constellation. Also known as the “Plough”
Constellation is seen below:

2. Align the stars
Use the bottom two stars of the Big Dipper to form an imaginary line which points to the Pole-Star

3. Face North
Turn and face in the direction of the Pole-Star and you are now facing North.
Remember: Find the big dipper, line up the two stars and find the Pole Star.
