We don’t mark where the vehicle is, but since the receiver is most often on when we get somewhere, the back tracking can guide us back to the vehicle. There have been some cases where that is exactly what we had to do.
At other times, we wished we would have marked where the car was and used “Go To”, like if we took a long winding route to the cache by following a trail or creek or something, but then we see the car isn’t that far away for the return trip if we would go directly to it. We still usually opt for the retracing our route option, though, because we know what to expect as far as obstacles and bushwhacking go on the way back.
