>Haven't needed emergency search-and-rescue in 20 years, so it's just never seemed like a good investment It's just $16 a month and there are other uses besides SOS; like texting to say you'll be late but everything is fine or that you've decided to stay another night. You can even get weather forecasts which is pretty huge if you ever do multi-day trips. Besides all that, carrying an InReach could one day save someone else's life. The most important benefit it gives me (and my wife) is peace of mind. I find it worth every penny.
