If you are preparing for the walk - sure thing, take the paper map if using it is a part of the outdoors joy, or as a spare if not that much anymore. However, if stranded while just traversing some rural woods in the car, I doubt you will have one usable for walking ready at hand. Also the phone is always with me anyway (communications, photo-video), so why not use it for mapping and tracking my progress for later analysis? It saves time too. On an unfamiliar trail I never even really stopping at the crossings to orient, just push the button, see where you are on the map (a blue triangle on mine), and take the turn you already have marked on it. You can even setup an alarm so not to miss the turn you need. I spent a bit less than 50 years using maps and love them too (I recall that when I got unlimited access to the "printing press grade" color printer at the very end of the past century, I've been obsessed with printing topo-maps in sections on A3 paper and gluing them to the paper walls of my room - probably hundreds square feet of calling beauty ), but I already have a very little desire spending precious outdoors time practicing basic field orienting, there are so many other more interesting and less practiced things to do and try.
