[QUOTE="colin455, post: 388468, member: 16499"] I am just starting to use a GPS with any regularity but still use an old tip that was told to me once. Every now and then "turn around and look where you have come from". This gives you a perspective on where you have been from the view that you will use when returning. You will have a new perspective on landmarks and topography. Also some sneaky game will come out behind you to see what you were after you pass. I have also been tracked once by a cougar and 2 bears in seperate incidences. Never saw the cougar, did see the bears. Seeing cougar tracks overlying yours for a km or so sure will make the small hairs stand up. Also dont be fooled into thinking that bears are always noisy. They can be as quiet as a cat if they want to. [/QUOTE]
