The slope card is great both for detecting avalanche risk and for determining how challenging your journey will be. By knowing the slope you can also judge any extra distance that you need to go due to the slope.

The scale lanyard has two scales on it; 1:25, and 1:50, which facilitates measuring the distance of your hike. Since it's soft and bendable it's easy to place it directly on to your route on the map.
