Hope you’re gearing up for another epic adventure! We’ve got a quick story and a solid piece of advice to share. Picture this: our SCORE team, loaded with excitement, heads out on a backpacking trip. Research done? Check. Trusty app for directions? Check… or so we thought. That’s when the twist came – our digital guide led us through some wild backcountry detours. Let’s just say, our vehicle was NOT thrilled.

Lesson learned? Never underestimate the power of a good ol’ paper map. When technology left us hanging, we wished we had one right then and there.

So here’s our mantra: Always carry a map – especially if you’re venturing off the beaten track. And hey, we got you covered, grab one of those waterproof National Geographic Maps from our shop; they’re lifesavers (literally).

Remember folks, whether you’re backpacking or just out for a day hike – bring that paper map and compass along. Trust us; it’s the dynamic duo of navigation!
