It's clever, and I see how it'd be useful, but being lost is more fun than looking like a bellend haha.

Very well thought out and informed reply.

I'm sure we would all rather die of hypothermia rather than look daft.

I bought some OS Landranger maps off Amazon that were laminated with a clear film to make them waterproof, I think I still have one or two left, I found them to be very stiff and unweildy, they were too stiff and unforgiving to keep in the map ocket of my cargo pants and they soon got relegated to being pinned up on the office wall, So I would welcome some soft scrunchy waterproof maps that dont need to be in a map case, they also probably are not as noisy either when being used so that would be a plus for Opsec. Vastly safer and more reliable than GPS as well.
