What is the importance of a compass when you go hiking?
A compass should be considered essential hiking gear and no pack is complete without one. While hiking, even on well marked trails, one can wander off and become lost. These days a GPS or even many smart phones with GPS can be used to locate yourself and find your way home. Unfortunately though, electronics can fail or break and batteries can die. A good compass will always work. Of course you should also have a map of the area you are hiking in, so the compass can be used to triangulate your position. Yet even without a map a compass will still have many valuable uses; most important among them is keeping you walking in a straight line as all humans have a tendency to walk in circle without knowing it.

Is hiking an example for public good?
Parks are an example of the public good, since they are a resource that is available to the general public. Hiking is something that people can do in parks. But hiking is not a public good, it is something that individuals do for their own recreation. Hiking is not generally intended to help anyone other than the hiker. If you went hiking and also collected litter while hiking, for proper disposal after you finished hiking, that would be a way of using your hiking for the public good. Of course, a well managed park or hiking trail should have no litter anyway. But sometimes there is.
