Go Off The Grid

This modern life is complicated. We get it! Sometimes you just get the urge to leave it all behind!

Sometimes it’s invigorating to dream about heading out into the deep wilderness. Going off the grid. Distancing yourself from the rat race, all of the political strife, the traffic-filled highways, the pollution, the endless stream of commercial pitches, the social media noise, the fast food — all of it!

Just roughing it in the back-country. Disappearing into the woods and testing your own ability to live off the land.

Then you think about the challenges nature pushes you up against. Horrific weather. Wild animals with teeth. Venomous snakes. Skunk apes. Avalanches. Mosquitoes. Ticks. Swamp of Sadness quicksand treacherous enough to pull your trusty steed towards certain death?

Honestly! What are your options if you actually work up the nerve to head out into that great wide open – but things don’t go the way you expect – and you find yourself needing rescue services?

Fire up your phone and call you mommy?

What if there’s no 5G signal out in that jungle you chose to explore?

That’s precisely why it’s so important to plan ahead — and make certain you tuck a Garmin inReach® Mini in that survivalist fanny pack of yours!

Just because you made the ill-informed decision to head into harm’s way, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re destined to perish – as long as you remembered to bring along your Garmin inReach® Mini.

And you did make sure to give it a full charge before you left home, right?
