This. Whenever I leave town my wife knows where I am going, at least the general area.Quote:

Good for you all. Glad to hear it ended well. I just lost an old friend last week in the Sandia's.
SPOTS are glorious things if you like to venture into the woods.

also, with the inreach, you can send texts on your position, so, if you're a selfish, self-absorbed dumbass that didn't tell someone where you were, at least they could be getting texts from you to let them know where you were and that you were ok.
also agree on the surefires, and 2 is 1, 1 is none... at some point, you have to cut your load. but, i feel pretty good with a surefire handheld and a surefire headlamp (I bought the headlamp from someone here on the forum)
I know someone who had/used one frequently during a safari trip in Africa.
Man I've been thinking about getting a spot or a delorme for a while now, things like this make me want to pull the trigger.
I think it was the service plans that got me, since I wouldn't use it much for half the year, so I was leaning towards the seasonal/monthly plans delorme offered.
Guess I'd better dust off that research and pick something.
Glad to hear he is found. Could have gone the other way.
