In Reach mini vs Spot X

[cchirichetti@comcast.net]

So my group for this year backed out for a DIY in CO, 3rd week Sept. I?m traveling from western Pa. My wife is questioning my sanity for going solo. To ease her anxiety I am going to purchase a GPS emergency 2 way device.

Anyone have preferences/experience on In Reach mini vs Spot X? I have multiple Garmin devices and have no issues. Read some reviews but I?d like to get some first hand reviews from the backcountry.

Thanks!

I'm in the same boat as you homebrew. Will likely be going with the inreach mini myself.

The InReach is great. Simple to use and it works. Definitely recommend it  :upthumb:

Dont know about the Spot x but I replaced my Spot Gen 3 with an Inreach Mini.
Very happy with it, and peace of mind for my family.

I used the delorme style of inreach last year and really liked the service in the mountains.

Just gave my Spot away on another site. Bought a Explorer + so the wife and I could text.
