I did an ice climb once where I needed to follow orienteering waypoints to get to the base of the ice because it was off in the woods with no trail to get there. It was surprising how difficult it was, just going around trees and magnetic error had us feeling very insecure about dead reckoning until we found a landmark, and we second guessed ourselves constantly until we could see the gulley we were headed for. It was maybe a couple hours of a ~15 hour adventure, but I feel like it should have been half the time it was (which probably meant an extra hour glisading down the trail in the dark). Maybe because my compass doesn't have a knife in it. I didn't think I needed that I had two axes and crampons and ice screws, I was basically covered in knives, but my compass couldn't make me bleed if I needed it to. what a piece of junk.
