I’ve seen people share tecniques and tips for defining east/west in a survival situation (using sticks, stones) and I’ve always heard how useful a compass is, but I’ve always wondered why is that? If I’m lost in a forest and I don’t know my surroundings, is a compass still useful to me?

If you have any idea where you are, you probably know what general direction some civilization will be.
Or if you can’t hike out, wouldn’t it suck if you spent a bunch of time building a shelter, wandered into the woods to find something to eat, and couldn’t find your shelter again?
