Communication is Key
on March 28, 2021
Posted by: Seth M
I'm a guide and outfitter in NW MT. There's no cell service within 40 miles of my home. The inReach is easy to set up, easy to use. It's nice to be able to communicate with family and friends if I hunt in an area that is different from where I said I'd hunt, if I'm going to be late getting back or if I need help packing out an elk or moose. I hope I never need it, but it's nice to know the SOS is right on my shoulder, if I do.

Powerful PLB fits in your pocket

Great little PLB with good battery life (with plenty of options to extend based on how much you want to update), two way messaging, and subscriptions are reasonable (which you can pause whenever you're not using it)

It worked pretty well. Slightly slow response times with the app on occasion but still a great option for communicating.

Great piece of mind.

I am impressed with this messenger, there were a few times in dense PA woods in a deep ravine during the winter that the message didn't successfully send until later but if I were really concerned I would have went to a better vantage. Overall the functionality with a my cell phone required a little to fully understand the quirks but one trip is all it took. Test it a bit around home first and you'll be happy with it.

This product is awesome, light weight, and allows for a safety margin and convenience out in the mountains or even if you're just out of cellphone range adventuring. Highly recommend.

What a great little device!

This is a must have for any and all that go into the disconnected wilderness. While I've only had it for a month or so, I've been putting it through its paces in testing the connection, battery, and ease of use before a big summer of epics (hopefully). It works every time and seems to be the real deal. Very impressed thus far. Will update my review if I ever come across any issues but... so far, so good!

Great easy to use product, only downside so far is that I am unable to pair this device with more than one phone (at different times)

Used this for a 20 high route walk and it was perfect.
