[QUOTE="Diggerdude, post: 54300, member: 308"] This is about the same as what I do also and always made it back so far. Knowing which direction an unmissable landmark is essential, being able to walk in a certain direction to hit a road, fence, gully or other familiar landmark is my main navigational technique. Having studied my ipad which has moving maps showing mines, leads, topo overlayed on google earth before leaving the car, combined with this has never failed me yet. Also when in WA I generally follow geology, as it's a lot clearer and easier to see changes where topo maps (which are mainly 1-250k over there) can be of too larger scale to use , as Wal mentioned.
