Re: Emergency beacon recommendations


 

Spot and Garmin both have plans that can be set up on a monthly basis as well.

I would keep a separate GPS for general use and keep the other stored until needed.

As for insurance, there is also the membership with Lifeflight that is pretty good - I have it. It also has a Fly-U-Home option that will get you from what ever hospital you are taken to in an emergency, to get you to a hospital near your home once stabilized.

I recommend the garmin Inreach mini (I think there is a version 2 now). Very light, decent battery life, rechargeable, works with or without a phone, reliable two way text messaging. Not very good as a stand alone gps, but that’s not really what it’s made for. Has several subscription plans, I just use the basic. I have used this on multiple Sierra trips and on some PCT sections. I highly recommend it. Also recommend getting the SAR insurance, just in case.
