GPS offline maps are not a backup plan, they're the plan
Got caught on the Eagle Creek trail in Oregon last summer when my phone died at mile 6. I had paper maps but no compass skills. Now I carry a $40 backup power bank and actually practiced reading the map before hitting the trail. Anyone else rely on dead weight paper maps they never use?

Getting caught like that is scary, glad you're okay... paper maps feel useless until they're not, right?
