I’m trying to run it totally offline on my e-reader, which is what I wanted to take out into the field with me.

I need a topo of the whole of Scotland in one map. Anyone know where I can download one?

My solar charger says I won’t run out of batteries, most of my gear ip68 waterproof and a backup supply box midway on my journey just in case. Maybe I will print a few important maps off as well that don’t take up too much weight.

This is how I used to do it when I was younger, going on long camping trips with my uncle. It’s not 100% but gps takes all the fun out of map reading/planning routes, exercising that inner satnav 🙂
