dont use moss to find north. lichens either. they lie. use the sun at noon standard time if you have a watch. it will be to the south in the northern hemisphere. but the rising and setting places of the sun can be off i dunno maybe alot if you are in high latitudes esp. In the winter it will be to the south and summer to the north in the northern hemisphere. Aussies reverse everything. if it is near noon estimate with a shadow like in the movie Gallipoli. you can also trust the north star if you are far enough north to see it above the trees. Orions belt and the moon also move basically on the same route as the sun but at nite and at different times, so draw a curvy line between them for a very rough idea of east-west. but please dont use the lichens.
