Re:Anyone using a GPS? Moved from "Stories" section
I have wanted to get a handheld GPS set for years, but guess what? My wife is one of the few people on the earth that is truly excellent with maps! We NEVER get lost. My one chance is to follow Wyoming Rockhound's example, and carry one into the backcountry where the maps don't give enough detail. We've never been lost there, either, since we seldom leave posted trails - but hey, its worth a try! Sometimes the trail signs get pretty thin. My argument will be "The problem with getting lost is you never plan to do it, so when you do, it's too late to go the store and buy a GPS". Think it'll work?
