I've been a camping enthusiast my whole life, and I hear all these stories, "72 YEAR OLD MAN SURVIVES BEING LOST FOR 19 DAYS" etc.
Even without a cell phone or a map I can tell my directions and still have a pretty good mental idea of where I am based on how far I've walked. I just can't fathom how you could get more than 3 days walk from your camp or entry point within 3 days and not remember the general locations you were in.
