Believe it or not, I can reliably navigate and determine my exact position with a map compass, it's a skillset I need to have to be a guide.
But it's a skillset I rarely use, because 99% of time, a GPS is much faster, easier and just as accurate to use.
Ever try to navigate on a large glacial icefield in whiteout conditions where you can't even see 10 metres in front of you? Getting your exact coordinates is essential, because being off-route can easily kill you. (Crevasses, icefall, avalanches etc). In that situation, navigating using solely map and compass would be difficult, inaccurate, time consuming, and dangerous. Phone based GPS maps, in addition to map + compass (and the ability to use them) is a vital tool in the wilderness. You'd be stupid not to use it.
A GPS will give incredibly precise data about my position and the terrain, and has overlays, route tracking, and other features that maps do not. they are incredibly powerful tools.
>you don't do expeditions everI do.
>won't ever tell you where I out even though actual guides shamelessly self promote at every opportunityThanks for the opportunity anon! You should come explore BC!
I live and work in British Columbia, Canada. The most beautiful place in the world. The entire province is a mountainous paradise, with incredible biodiversity. We have it all, endless wilderness and towering snowcapped mountains, world class hiking, camping, rock climbing, skiing, whitewater kayaking, and mountaineering.
BC has the third most protected wilderness of anywhere on Earth. 14.4% of our land is in one of our many provincial parks, and much more is still wilderness, or in national, or municipal parks.
Come hike, fish, hunt, or even just take a road trip and car camp / hike all across the province, you'll never run out of wilderness to explore here!
Hope to see you here anon!
