Hey all, here is the latest offer from SPOT and we wanted to share it here. Brandon and I used their phone on a recent elk hunt and it performed great.
SPOT, NOW FREE FOR THE HOLIDAYS, INITIATED 64 RESCUES IN JULY ALONE
The perfect gift that provides peace of mind, for both the adventure seeker and basecamp back home
SPOT is offering its life-saving technology for absolutely FREE with the purchase of Unlimited Tracking this holiday season (offer valid 11/1 – 12/31 2015). Hunters, fishermen, hikers and other outdoor enthusiasts can get equipped for their 2016 adventures, which often go beyond the boundaries of cellular. Since SPOT’s inception in 2007, the technology has helped to initiate over 3,800 rescues worldwide.
Check out this cool video that gives you a glimpse into how SPOT keeps loved ones connected:

Adventurers can use SPOT’s cool features like check ins, tracking, custom messages or if needed, SOS to reach emergency responders, all while basecamp back home can rest assured that the adventure lover in their life is equipped to stay in touch. So let them go rock climbing in Denali or deep sea fishing off the coast because in addition to being a safety device, SPOT will also be there for the other important things in life, whether it’s a birthday phone call or a text message that says “I love you, goodnight.”
"I didn't get it for me…I got it for my family. I fly into mountain airports where radar and cell phones don't work.” – Gary Reeves, PilotSafety.org
“Having the ability to stay connected to my world is invaluable. Getting to wish my brother happy birthday from the middle of the Atlantic was the best birthday present I could give him.” – Jesse Fielding, CEO and Skipper, 13 Fifty Racing
“I just got introduced to the Globalstar GSP-1700 satellite phone and 9600 data hotspot so I can stay connected all summer long as we continue to reel in tuna. I’ll have the ability to make calls, send emails and should an emergency occur, contact first responders. After trying it out over the last few weeks, I have to say it’s a “must-have” for every boat out there. And because of communicating with the other boat using our SAT phone, we moved and caught a 700 pounder!” – Captain Dave Carraro, Wicked Tuna Competitor
Additionally, Trevor Thomas explains, “As a professional, blind long distance hiker, safety for myself and my guide dog is my priority when in the back country. No matter who you are, things can go wrong and my SPOT Gen3 is the most important piece of gear that I have.”
Just this month, we received two accounts of hunting incidents: in one example found here, SPOT helped two seriously injured hikers make it out alive. In another found here, SPOT could have helped famous hunter Tim Wells of the Relentless Pursuit get out a lot quicker. SPOT is a must-have for any outdoorsman.
