Glad to see people like Frank and Mark designing safety features that
are helping out our sport. I can only imagine the nightmare of being
stranded in the trees with no way out, just hoping that someone will
find you. Without a Spot Tracker you are completely at the mercy of
others to find you, a needle in a haystack.

Absolutely no excuses anymore, everyone needs a Spot Tracker. I'm
ordering mine right now.


or a PLB. /ELT.


Or, better yet, all 3.
Each has a unique benefit the others don't have.
