Just joined the forum. Been walking for a few years now - started going further off the beaten track, and higher up the beaten track and hence found the need to navigate more and more important. Got to the top of the fiddler in NW Scotland in the summer, mist came down and ended up going down the wrong way, which I discovered when the mist cleared. "That won't happen again!" I promised myself so got Lyles book and started paying much more attention. I have GPS and can and do use map and compass, but still got caught out!
Looking to join the modern world and get a smartphone and use this with os maps. Found the thread on the Samsung active 4 phone interesting as that was the one I had my eye on. So, I've been warned off that now. Not sure how mapping software works on the phones as yet and hope to learn something of that from this forum. But that's enough of that. Hwyl fawr nawr.
