I've become pretty blase about maps

I have several shoe boxes FULL of maps. I have way to much !@#$.

Um... I have two full file drawers of topo maps and similar.

Just that I used to have to worry about it weeks in advance of a trip, to make sure I had the correct maps. Now we have instant access to everything, and also other options if you don't have a paper map.

Plus, of course, like others have mentioned, I have a fairly extensive vault of paper maps on hand at this point.

I still love maps and carry them pretty often. I just don't like being reliant on batteries and GPS signal in certain areas is still not up to par.
There's nothing like opening a few beers and a big map on a table for a good planning session.

Absolutely: I am a pretty big fan of mapsturbation myself, since when I was a kid.

But using MyTopo online topo maps in full screen mode on a computer is a pretty awesome form of mapsturbation as well: you can zoom way in, follow a route off the "edge" of the map by scrolling, etc. I do find reading maps on a phone pretty limiting, though.

Maps for me. Although at least twice in the last ten years I had printed paper maps, but still took a photo of the very detailed topo map at the trailhead--mainly because I was impressed with it. And both times I ended up consulting that photo for additional detail on the map. Go figure.

But this is all very fluid. I don't take my phone backpacking, only a small point and shoot camera. But i have to admit that my phone takes better photos than this ten year-old camera, and it probably doesn't weight more, either. So why don't I just take the phone? Well, maybe battery life...maybe because I fear getting a text message...but probably just because I am a creature of habit.

And I like paper maps.

HYOH, of course.

I carry my phone, powered off, in a sealed bag. I figure, in an emergency, there's a (small) chance that I might be able to get a signal if I needed to. But mostly, I know that the chance exists that I'll end up somewhere other than where the car is: because a point-to-point hike was aborted (this has happened to me), because I had to retreat due to weather and reaching the car was not possible (this has also happened to me), etc.

When that does happen, having your phone in your pack can be a real advantage. (I always leave local law enforcement and land management agency phone numbers with my wife, so a quick call to her gives me access to that info.)

My habit is to pack my phone, a credit/debit card, and some cash. (All of these things were very handy the time I retreated to the "other side" of the range and was able to hire a local to drive me 100+ miles by road to my car.)

Also, as I said, I like knowing that I have map images on my phone as backup, if something happens to my paper maps.
