Lost Without a GPS: Navigating the 1800s Wilderness on Horseback

Have you ever missed an exit while you’re driving down the highway,
and it takes you maybe 10,
15 minutes to get back to where you’re trying to go?
Well, imagine if you were back in the 1800s on horseback.
First of all, there’s zero navigation.
The maps are shoddy at best.
You get this direction to go to this one mountain side that looks like
jagged tops. Mountain tops.
And then you turn left and head
two days to get to the city you’re trying to get to.
Could you imagine if you get to the wrong jagged mountain tops?
You’re like, well, they look jagged.
It’s gonna take you four days
just to get back to the right mountain tops.
So then next time you miss your exit,
just remember, it’s not gonna take you four days.
May take you 10 minutes, it’s not gonna take you four days.
Relax.
