Rant: my paper map and compass beat the $40 GPS app on the Wilson Creek loop
Did the Wilson Creek loop in Pisgah last weekend and my phone died at mile 6 while I was trying to follow some downloaded app that had me off trail twice already. I pulled out the gas station map I grabbed in Marion for $6 and my old compass, and somehow nailed every junction the rest of the way out. How many of you still carry paper as your main and the phone as backup, cause I think I had it backwards this whole time?
