We use maps to plan future trips, or to retrace a trip on the map. Maps help to find our position in the outdoors, and to follow a route to our destination. Maps also let us see what lies ahead of us over hills and mountains - as maps are really a bird's-eye view of the outdoors. Paper maps are still popular, despite Global Positioning System (GPS) electronic devices that can display maps and give positions. A paper map (or a waterproof map) won't stop working, as there isn't a battery that can run out!
