Do I need a GPS in Alaska?
I am planning a trip from Victoria BC to Alaska and was wondering if I need a GPS Navigation unit for use in Alaska? or is it map friendly enough. thanks

My handheld "trail" Garmin etrex units both have good accuracy. I just don't rely on the mapping of roads or trails. And we never rely on the routing features. That would have us turning down roads that became overgrown decades ago.
Topography doesn't change much over time and that is our primary need, for when we're in the backcountry.
