Had the unfortunate need to use the Spot for a group we came upon today. I have to say the Spot may be the single best investment we have made to date. Utilizing their emergency system, the response was nothing short of amazing. They contacted all appropriate emergency responders and emergency contacts quickly. Upon learning from local agencies that we were not the ones involved, but instead using our spot as the locator, the called our emergency contacts and let them know that we were ok. All in all, I recommend the Spot and it's services to anyone who may be in the backcountry. Whether it be summer or winter. This relatively inexpensive device may easily save your life. It's the second time we have assisted with a response and now we will not be leaving home without it.

Be sure to set up your contacts appropriately (there is a thread in the SpotMe section about this). Letting them know details helps with the response time. Get to know the device. It's more important than the fuel in your tank.
