Hey! I've been obsessed with how old paper maps still win over GPS in remote adventures—do you think they still matter, or have tech maps taken over?
Old paper maps still win when the sky goes out of range, but they’re just a backup now. A GPS that fails is a GPS that’s gone wrong, while a paper map is a silent witness you can still read. Use both: paper for the “if‑we‑get‑lost” case, GPS for the “if I’m not going to get lost” case. And don’t forget the compass—you never know when the cloud will swallow the screen.
