GPS app vs paper map on the Lost Coast, no contest
Did a 4 day stretch on the Lost Coast last month and my phone died by day 2. I had downloaded the route but the screen froze in the fog and I was stuck following a cow path for 3 miles. I pulled out the paper map I almost left home and it got me back to the beach trail in under an hour. The GPS is nice when it works but marine layer kills the signal, paper never runs out of batteries. Has anyone else hit a dead zone that made them rethink going digital only?
