I was hunting Missionary Ridge above Lemon Reservoir maybe 15 years ago in drop camp. Just after huge burn. I have a jet black Magellan GPS at that time. The ground was jet black everywhere. I was hunting this burn area top of a canyon and saved a few waypoints since I had good sign and wanted to get there in dark following morning with hunting buddy. So back in tent after dinner, I decided to pull the Magellan out to see how far it was to take buddy next morning. Yeah, no Magellan! Tore pack apart and every pocket in vest. NADA!
So next morning we go and sit somewhere I think close. Late morning we stroll across the burn. We stopped to glass and while we were discussing where to hunt rest of day, look down and there was my Magellan upside down even harder to see with solid black back and obviously no visible screen. Crazy that stopping in a spot where I somehow dropped it and inexplicably looked down at right time. Still have it!
