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)

I suppose that the great advantage of GPS over map-reading occurs when
the visibility becomes too poor to see the landmarks shown on your map.
