Has anyone tried this?

To quote their own verbiage:

"Cairn helps you get home safely from any outdoor adventure — hikes, runs, climbs, etc. Easily share your plans with loved ones, record your track, find spots with cell coverage, download maps for offline use, and see stats on your route.

Named one of the three best map apps for navigating the wilderness by Outside Magazine. "

FWIW, it's free and runs on Android or Iphone.

Unlike Cairn, neither my paper/tyvek/plastic map and compass, nor the directions I leave at home with my family, will sell my data. And, as I was able to put into practice recently, you can easily follow a bearing on a compass without a light. ;)
