Use iPhone and IPad as GPS

Cubans
I’m looking forward to the possibility of cuban cigars in the US again. They are useful when the bugs get heavy.

we need
scientific evidence Cubans deter bugs.

Works great!
I’ve been using this and Ihike for a while now. I stopped bringing the GPS with as the phone is far easier to use by a wide margin and I always carry a phone with anyways. I always bring a map and compass with for redundancy although they almost never see the light of day.

Is your iPhone waterproof?

and sure, I can use my phone for all those things- unless I don't want to kill the battery.
I pack light, but find room for both, as Matt says, it's wise to have a backup plan.
My Garmin can last me a week if I only have it on when I need it.

WOW in the Yukon !

waste of a good cigar!
:wink: They do deter bugs well, I’d just resent sharing it with them.

Can’t provide peer reviewed studies
but - I can attest that Cuban cigars are every bit as good as other cigars, even the famed Swisher Sweet, as detering canadian black flies.

Please: Never Smoke a Good Cigar Outdoor
Only indoors with a tumbler of Bourbon.

good cigars are wasted on me also

(not a fan of bourbon. Cognac will do)

Good cigar and scotch
can be helpful to sooth the sore muscles and weariness after a long paddle. Best to set up camp first in case you find yourself into a second scotch.
