Knowing where you're going!

When one travels in remote areas, I feel it's really very important to have a GPS on hand, so that you can see the exact height and distance travelled. I love to travel in the hills and the more remote the better they are. We're really not fond of going to places full of tourists and so it is important to have one's basic guidance systems with us. Having a GPS on hand is one of the first essential items of a trip to the mountains and its makes traveling to these areas much more interesting. In fact, each of the trips has photographs taken just of the GPS, showing the height and distance covered, a good way to remember at a later time.
