Young people should try doing this if possible, it's a good exercise on navigation skill.

I remember teaching orienteering to my son's scout troop.

When they complained that would never need to know that because GPS, I handed them a GPS with almost dead batteries during a hike and told them to show me.

About 10 minutes later they became much more interested in the map and compass.
