I can't even imagine taking my phone. One of my favorite parts of backpacking is not looking at an LCD screen for 10+ days.

- rconti 11y agoI went on a backpacking trip where I took my phone but didn't look at it. Isn't this the same thing? It seemed prudent to have the possibility to find cell service and get an exact GPS location, even though I likely only had coverage in a couple of spots over the course of a week.
- fletchowns 11y agoI prefer topo maps and compass, GPS isn't really necessary. For emergencies I do carry a SPOT though: http://findmespot.com/en/index.php?cid=100 http://findmespot.com/en/index.php?cid=100
