Think Twice when using GPS Navigation

Just when you thought you could rely on technology, a couple was almost led to their death when their GPS navigator got them trapped in a foot-and-a-half of snow. The couple was following the GPS navigation on their SUV that led them to some national forest, where they were trapped for three whole days; if it wasn’t for their traditional non-techy winter clothes, they would’ve froze to death. Thankfully due to some changes in the atmosphere, their cellphone’s GPS decided to work and sent out a signal to alert rescuers. The next time you decide to fully rely on your GPS navigator when travelling, please pack a compass along; it might come in handy when you get lost in the forest.
