What does knowing cardinal directions affects in a survival situation?

355 views

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?

Even if you woke up with 0 idea where you are, being able to map the local area and your position in it can be useful.
