    Debating pack options

    Satellite communicators worth the cost?

    In-reach for me whenever I’m in AK. It’s a little slow(have an older model) but I consider it a must needed lifeline

    Wondering if there is anyone on here that has retired early (FIRE Movement)

    I’m doing it through the old fashioned way(military retirement). I’ve got 16 in and looking to go for 26 years of service. Should put me at around 47-48 yo.
