Bought a $40 GPS unit for a solo trip in the Sawtooths

Got turned around in thick fog above Alice Lake, but the offline maps saved me hours. Felt like a dumb purchase until that moment. Anyone have a go-to backup for when the phone dies?

A $40 GPS unit felt dumb until it saved you in the fog? That's a bargain.

What saved me, @the_simon, was having a simple paper map as a backup.
