This is why those of us who can neither afford GPS nor use them in the environment in which they operate away from the tracks head down creek lines and up ridge lines. This way you are much less likely to become geographically embarressed. If you do not immediately get the jist of this draw yourself a little map with creeks and ridges on it and go for a theroetical wander. If you try the inverse you will see your chance of getting lost increase greatly at every unclear junction.
