SPOT Satellite Messenger
Peace Of Mind Everyday, Emergency Assistance When You Need It. SPOT is the product praised by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today, as well as the leading hiking, hunting, and fishing publications. Why? Because SPOT lets you live your life and tell others exactly where you are and how you’re doing – in real time. Because SPOT uses satellites, it works in places cell phones never will.
Now you can let your spouse know you’re OK, ask for help from friends and family, or track your location and show it to others back at home in real time, all while you’re out living life. In trouble? Hold the 9-1-1 button to alert emergency responders around the world for critical assistance.
So, no matter what you do outdoors, you can enjoy it with more fun, and more peace of mind with SPOT.

Below are some recent mentions of SPOT in the news:
Congratulations to SPOT sponsored climber and NASA Astronaut Scott Parazynski for making history this week! He is the first man to have explored outer space and stand on top of the world’s tallest mountain, Mt. Everest. Climbing buddy Rohan Freeman from Team Peak Promotion USA/Jamaica also made the summit and carried SPOT. Check out his tracks all the way to the top!

A good account of a recent MT Hood rescue. The Spot user was actually a fellow climber that first appeared on the scene of the injured man.
