Been in that "boat" too. Got lost on an island after trailing a deer and my headlight and hand held light going dead looking for the doe. To make things worse, cell reception was sketchy and my gps was 180 off in direction and bout 500yds off on distance from where my feeder and stand was. After 2hrs wondering in the dark, i figured id stay the night, so i build a fire and piled up leaves for a bed and my phone rings. I stand up to answer it n drop the call. After several tries, i concluded that laying on the ground i was able to ask the guy at camp to help navigate me back to my boat. I finaly got hm at 3am, enough time to take a nap, get my compass out and recal my gps before heading back to the island. Know, i have a mechanical backup for navigation incase these fancy electronics go to crap again

Why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can!
