^^One can definitely get into trouble with a paper map. Around the millenium I did a week long trip around Wyoming with a friend. 2,000 miles of driving. We used the Wyoming Gazetteer. The scale is so huge though. We ran into some bad roads for a rental 4wd and nearly got stuck. Got lost a bunch and one time ended up on an Indian reservation. We had 3 flat tires for the week. A few months later those tires were recalled.
Sometimes it's all about the journey...
The Road Not Taken
By
Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
