That's how I do Europe/Alps. Paper maps are just awesome. Means your brain is fully engaged as well. Tank bags are definitely a great option. Although I do admire setups where you don't have to look down as much. That was one big drawback of a tank-bag. Felt like coming up to an intersection/roundabout, if it wasn't obvious where to go, it was actually pretty tough to glance down, find your place on the map, interpret where to go, then translate that into real world 'I need to take the third exit'. There are times when gmaps makes things way too easy.
