Don’t count on a GPS to prevent you from getting lost.
If your Batteries die or the GPS Device becomes damaged or lost then what will you do? A good old fashion Compass and knowledge of how to use it can be a lifesaver.

Likewise never rely on a map and compass. Your map may get wet and fall appart and your compass may get broken or lost.
Having multiple redundant means of navigation is best. Compass map and GPS is better than two compass’ and two maps (or two GPSs)
