I already have a GPS. Why do I need to learn to use a map and compass?
A GPS is a supplement for map and compass but not a replacement • requires batteries. • doesn’t work well in deep canyons or with heavy tree coverage. • can only guide you if you already have coordinates. • Many units can’t show terrain. • You must be moving to get a valid direction reading from most units.
