Lost hunters unit 41 SW Idaho. Anyone here work for OnX

[IDVortex]

I need to get to know some wives, bribe them with a gift card to the nice spa resort in exchange for their husbands onx account login...

I don't care if I've been missing for a week. Nobody is getting access to my Onx waypoints. They can have my money, house, truck, etc but I'm taking my Onx waypoints to my grave.

You can set up Inreach to post your location at set intervals to via a private web page you can grant access to. I set it up so my wife and kids can go online at any time and see where I am at, if I am moving etc. This way they won't have to wait a long period of time to get their inheritance.

Thanks for the heads up and LMAO.

I always name those big buck/bull waypoints as "open mine shaft, poison oak or snake pit".

tip of the day right here^

yes, but annoying when search and rescue show up with all those ropes and pulleys to lift your body from the mine shaft when all they needed where a few empty packs to help haul the trophy bull out…

Glad it worked out. The old advice is the best - go prepared, don’t push things, let someone know where you are. Any new gizmo can’t take the place of those.

I bought my DeLorme InReach back in early 2016 and it is still going strong.

A Garmin inreach is my next purchase for sure
I got a call from a hunter late one night ( ‘“ I’m stuck in a wash out, and my insulin pump is on zero “ where are you?”” “‘ I don’t have any idea “”)
4 hours of driving roads on a 4x29 mile ranch is hard to find someone, a entire hunting unit impossible.
# 2 I like texting wife and contacts any updates on health, harvest , weather

I have one and have had one for quite some time. I think 2017 or 2018. I had a spot first.

I know my wife appreciates that I can let her know I woke up and made it back.

Sometimes I get to hear about how the kids are not behaving which is a bummer, but I guess it's the tradeoff.

I got mine around the same time. Not a single issue. Road trips, hunting, fishing, hikes, it’s with me pretty much all the time.

Mine has worked very well for several years now. My other buddies also have them and we can communicate inreach to inreach when out of two-way radio range.

OP, did you get an update on what the story is now that they've been found?
