Just my two bobs' worth, but when I was in the Army, the nav training for newbies always started with the observation that you NEVER rely on man-made features marked on maps. Houses burn down, roads get re-aligned, etc. Mountains, on the other hand, don't tend to move much, and nor do rivers, lakes etc (allowing for seasonal flows, tides, etc). Other observation was that, in the event of becoming geographically embarrassed, the map is right, the compass is right, YOU are wrong!
That was a while ago (when I was in the Infantry, Centurion was a rank, not a tank!)
