[QUOTE="Highway1, post: 55823, member: 1171"] I also thought I had a good grasp on intuition, gut feeling and common sense. On a cloudy day taking mental not of scrubby trees and a gulley, 500 meters from the car, then walking around in circles with a GPX5000 low to the ground. I thought it was time to return to the car, walked for a k at least but no car. I was approx 100 degrees off coarse and only found my way back when I walked across a bush track, followed that to the next track that had a track name sign, then worked out where I was. Result lost at least an hour of detecting. Cheers Max :) [/QUOTE]
