[pct-l] Compass mirror preferences.

Hi Denny, 

If I understand the process correctly you'll need to send your request to
"pct-l at backcountry.net" instead of just me. I'm just a member as you are and
they won't remove you if I ask them to.

Now that I've got the water figured out I've got a question about compasses.
After some research I selected the Suunto M-3DL for the trip. 

Then someone asked a question about the Suunto MC-2G Global on a survival
board I read and its got really good reviews. The biggest difference I see
between the two is the 2G has the mirror and costs twice as much as the 3DL
($25 vs $50). The question is do you think a mirrored compass is necessary
for the PCT?

As a related question is the PCT marked well enough that it could be
traveled without a compass by just using maps? I'm not considering not using
a compass but just wondering how obvious the trail itself is most of the
time. Is the trail so obvious it could might even be traveled without maps
or a compass if you stuck to the "beaten path"?
