If you get lost in the forest, why can’t you make a 180 degree turn and walk back?

It’s very difficult to walk in a perfectly straight line in the forest, you are constantly moving around obstacles. Additionally, you don’t have any major terrain features to guide you; so it’s super easy to start walking north and end up walking east without realizing it.
The best way to get out is to plan ahead and find a backstop that can allow you to find your bearings. For example, a long river or road that will always be to your east.
