navigating without a gps?

Hi
I will be riding the great rivers trail down the mississippi river. I ordered the Adventure Cycling Association map which looks pretty detailed. I think i ll do fine without a gps, but then again i m new to touring. So i m curious if anyone has had any problems navigating without a gps or is it absolutely crucial?
Bottom line: Am i gonna be able to follow my route with just a map and maybe a compass?
I dont wanna keep missing important turning points or campgrounds..

Thanks in advance for the advices
