[QUOTE="XSIVSPD, post: 2030165, member: 98308"] I've been super happy with my inreach up here in AK. As you can imagine there's not a whole lot of cell service lol. Haven't had to use it for emergencies, but have used it to call for help packing game out or for a boat to come pick us up due to gear failure. I don't rember offhand what it costs monthly, but you can suspend the account at any time for any reason for any amount of time and start it up again the same without penalties and you don't pay for the months that it's suspended. I havent don't that in a while though as we use it on short notice throughout the year for various activities. As far as onX goes, I just download the maps to my cellphone to use offline, put it into airplane mode and bring a small battery bank (or solar charger for the longer excursions) to charge it and the inreach from.
