My kit contains a USGI Tritium compass and maps of my AO. Backup GI compass and maps are stashed in my car along with a map of the US. Also have USGS (US Geodetic Survey) maps of the retreat area that show great detail (forget what the size ratio is).
In my opinion, would rather have a map and compass over a GPS any day because you can never tell when the sattellites could become disabled or have mis-information fed into them.
They are a "must-have" for me.
