2. I am facing SSE. My magnetic compass indicates a heading of 140,

14. Google Maps says the wall I'm facing is NE...

17. South and slightly west.
About 185 degrees "true." Where I am the magnetic deviation is 2 degrees east, so 183 degrees magnetic.

29. I was never very good at orienteering.
Give me nothing but a topo map & a compass - I'll be sure to get lost.
