Quite a few years ago there was hunter walking around. He stated he was in the army and had a sense of direction. After watching him walk around for a while with his his sense of direction, that must have come from a comic book , because he was lost and would not admit to it.
Take both gps, compass and a set of backup batteries. The same type should work for your gps and flashlight just in case you are out there at night. BTW, some Gps's do not work in the cypress domes. They are too dense.
