True satellite GPS use can be a huge battery drain, no?
I'm not worried about battery drain for what I need at this point, but from what I understand if you put you phone on airplane mode and shut off all the apps that use your location the battery drain is minimal. . From what little I read about this walking from way point to way point is different than traveling down the road at 60 mpg. I always carry a battery pack anyways
Just wanted to mention it, in case it hadn't been considered. Airplane mode should help battery life. You're right, it's the apps that keep trying to find wireless or cellular signal that wear down the battery. Spare battery pack doesn't hurt, either. Have fun.
