    I had been using a spot device and after getting a 225 dollar renewal charge from spot I had enough. I used this on a 5 day trip in the sierra Nevada mountains. It was small enough to wear on my pack strap which made it easy to check out miles for the day. Battery life wasnt bad in tracking mode I recharged it off a solar charger but I think it could have gone two days in tracking mode. miles traveled was dead on with the map trail mileage. Pairing the unit with a iphone and sending a message was pretty easy.

    I bought this in order for my family to track me while I drove across Africa in a 4x4, oftentimes in very remote areas. It worked perfectly with clear skies, but gave some issues in clouds. That being said, a 5/5 because I’d be totally on my own without this as a safety net.

    Bought the InReach as I do a lot of things in the back country. My wife was stressing out a bit that I would be gone, with no service, and was unable to contact search and rescue if needed. This is my second purchase of one (I lost the first). I loved how easy the app worked to be able to text my wife from to let her know I was okay every night. It was also convenient for my buddies to see where exactly I was at for when I needed help packing out an animal after a hunt. I just send them a pin with my location. My wife was even able to log onto my Garmin account at home and see exactly where I was while I am out if she gets worried at all. As for battery life, I only didn’t give it 5 stars because I have a small solar charger that I used to keep it charged when I am using it. I feel like it lasted a long time but because I have a charger I’m not totally sure. I love that there is one SOS button for search and rescue. It will contact the local search and rescue if needed sending them your exact location. You do need a subscription to use it to send texts but you can pay by the month or year. You don’t have a contract. I love this product and the ease of it. I will always have one.

    I activated, signed up for the Safety plan, and sent a preset message as a test while out on a motorcycle ride. The recipient received it in under a minute and had a link to my location the was completely accurate. I also like that I can subscribe to a plan only when I need it, then drop the plan in the winter months when I cant ride. I was debating between the InReach and a regular one-way beacon. I read a post from a rescue coordinator who said its a huge benefit if they know the nature of the problem and can communicate back and forth. That was enough to convince me a two-way beacon was the right choice.

    Takes a bit to work out the features. Like all my Garmin’s. Not intuitive. Once you get out there ie -up in the Sierras on new trails. It’s worth every penny Tracking my route, marking Waypoints like go to W. Points. Lots more features to test.

    I have only had the opportunity to use this on one hike BUT I am very happy with the physical product. It is lightweight but feels well made and durable.

    En randonnée, même courte et sans difficultés, c’est équipement de sécurité dans mon cas… pouvoir communiquer, même hors réseaux mobiles, et déclencher des secours…

    Without an external battery the battery life is not very long, the tracking is not very accurate. But the ability to send and receive messages while afield is indispensable
