You don’t have to be an avid outdoor adventurer to be at risk. Anyone who works or travels in remote areas, or who lives in a region where the threat of inclement weather or natural disasters are a reality also knows how fast situations can turn bad and how quickly you can find yourself without communications. Which is why the SPOT Satellite Messenger and Tracker makes the perfect addition to any survival or disaster preparedness kit.

Each year, millions of people escape to the great outdoors. Unfortunately, not all of them escape from it
The National Association of Search and Rescue estimates that there are over 50,000 search and rescue missions launched each year in the United States. Most of these are initiated without knowledge of the victims’ location. While the popularity of GPS navigation systems and the increased coverage of wireless phone networks give some people a sense of security, anyone who routinely ventures into the wilderness knows how unreliable phone service can be in remote areas. And while a GPS device can tell you exactly where you are, if you become injured or stranded you still have no way of letting anyone else know that you need help.

SPOT satellite messenger - It could be the difference between coming home in coach or coming home in cargo.
