True...but they're dependable, extremely easy to learn how to use and they don't need batteries. Today, it makes sense to have a GPS device, but keep that compass around anyway. Regardless, your second sentence is the key....have a "good" map of the area. If you don't have a good map, don't get off the highway and don't take any shortcuts.
