Hi, all.
Like many of us here I carry some kind of "insurance" like a PLB or SPOT or other type of beacon on my outings so I can summon the cavalry to save my behind when things go haywire.
I found another "system" to serve as backup. Redundancy is a good thing, right? Say your PLB went over the deep end, or your SPOT device slipped out of your hands and plummeted down to the bottom of a canyon ? Now what ?
I did a quick check to see if this has been mentioned here before, but apparently not. If I missed it I appologize.
It is completely free and basically foolproof.
All of the usual applies... no affiliation, etc.

Check this out, it could very well be a lifesaver and since it is a free service (set up by likeminded folks) your financial situation will never be an issue. This is for everyone!
Be safe guys and gals.
Regards,
Pharaoh.
