Are you suggesting people bring miles of brightly colored line?
I’d trust it over a map that’s inaccurate, tbh. Otherwise, research, research, research.
What you’d want is a compass and easily identifiable landmarks. You can make identifiable marks as you blaze a trail, breaking branches or marking trees, hopefully avoiding marring the bark. Generally you’ll be following a game trail anyway, it’s likely the easiest path to take.
Yes, but I still wouldn’t trust a map that doesn’t match what I’m seeing.
I agree with you completely
