Hikers SHOULD Carry a Paper Map

  1. Hard copy won’t kill your battery.
  2. Redundancy.
  3. GPS is rotting our brains. 😀
  4. Maps are fun!
  5. Guidebook pages are more convenient to check on the fly.
  6. Keeps me from checking my phone every five seconds.
  7. Context.

That’s from a good article by KELLY FLORO:

Why I Always Carry the FarOut App AND a Guidebook or Map
