[QUOTE="Recon$$, post: 2241344, member: 34122"] Use both. Rely on the GPS 99 percent of the time. However terrain association and knowing your directions will save you should you need it. I have trail blazed and gotten completely lost with no GPS and relied on north and a stream to get out of a sticky situation. I also did a haho where my GPS tried to send my team and I into the ocean and I bet on the compass and hit land. Not a bad backup tool... [/QUOTE]
