Ranger, I'd like to hear more about the DeLorme GPS w/Spot. When you or anyone has some really life experience to share, please start a tread about it. I've read the website info, used Garmin GPS's, and seen Spots used by themselves.

My girl friend is planning on soloing Lake Superior and this would be a great way to do resupplies & pickups.

On topic, Someone did get a cell call out from Pickeral Lake, near the start of the "B" chain, for a medical emergency I witnessed.
