He demonstrated 1 thing that many need to be aware of - electronics can fail. Carry and know how to use a compass and map.

He changed locations. He never not lost.
He drove from his old camp in Big Horn County, to Sheridan County (they border each other), where a citizen located his vehicle, called it in and he was located afterwards.
His electronics went down and he didn't have a backup means of communication.
That has nothing to do with needing a map and compass.
