What will work to get you right to a spot in complete darkness is fishing line. When you leave tie it off about shoulder high to your stand then run it back, keeping it up and looping it around a a tree every 10-20 yards to keep it tight and high. When you get to the road or start point tie it off and mark it with reflective tape. Next AM locate it, untie, then roll it up on something as you go in. You can leave it but use a light weight line that will break if something large hits it. We used this to get back and forth to forward positions in the jungle in Vietnam.
