Alternatives

• Phone notes— Searchable; useless with wet hands or a dead battery.

Maintenance notes

• Keep a pencil or all-weather pen with it; ink fails in the wet and cold.

Buying considerations

• Waterproof paper writes in the rain and on the water.
• A pocket size gets carried; a big one gets left behind.
