Staying safe and Connected in the outdoors

The past 12 years I have worked in remote locations as a guide and photographer, from the deepest canyons in the world to the far north polar regions. I have used satellite phones, Spot devices and PLBs(personal Locater Beacons) and now the DeLorme In-Reach with the Earthmate App. The DeLorme paired with the In-Reach is all I need and it does everything it claims too. I can quickly send and receive communication via emails or phone numbers in my phone, track my route, mark points, and lastly but most importantly I can still call for an SOS if needed. It is like a phone, GPS and Safety beacon all in one! In my opinion the Iridium satellite network is much more reliable than the Globalstar that the spot device runs on. Loving Earthmate so far.
