Sure. No real dexterity is needed. The wetnotes go in the small pocket on the right leg. Nothing else is in that pocket, so you don't have to worry about loosing anything. If you want, you can start with the wetnotes opened so that the compass is on one side and a blank page on the other. The standard wetnotes have width and height dimensions similar to a VCR tape, so you should be able to hold onto that with heavy or mitts. You can always shove them back into your pocket if you need both hands. -John > Would you recommend this technique for use in 45 degree water, with heavy gloves or mitts? > > James > > > >For cave diving, when not in use the compass is in your wetnotes in your > >drysuit pocket.
