Just curious Will. Are you an old style map-reading navigator or have
you fallen under the spell of GPS? (just as an aid of course - I
wouldn't dare to suggest that it is your primary method)

Hi Jack,
I personally do not own a GPS although my wife does. I wasn't leading today but
the leader used GPS with a compass as a check. I always have in my rucksack a
map and two compasses. So to answer your question I'm basically a map and
compass man, GPS is heavy on battery juice and knowing how to use a map and
compass is very re-assuring.

Will.
