Waterproof Maps are a critical survival item. Buy at least two sets. One goes in your Bug Out Bag and the other gets stored at your bolt whole or survival cache. Of course you should buy local maps. I don’t know where you live. For me that means Waterproof Maps of the regions around the Appalachian Trail.
Don’t take anything for granted. Be prepared. Pick a destination and then use your Map to figure out if you can get from point A to point B. Don’t wait until things get bad and you are running for your life to figure out you don’t really know how to get to your rally point or bolt hole. GPS is great, but there is no guarantee the GPS satellites will be up?
You might have to search for your local Maps but here are some links to help out:
- Appalachian Trail, Swatara Gap to Delaware Water Gap
- Arkansas River, Leadville to Salida Map
- Colorado River, Kremmling to Glenwood Springs
- Mount Rainier National Park
- North Cascades National Park Map
- Olympic National Park Map
- Pennsylvania
