WHY OWN AN inREACH?
If you love getting away from it all—whether it’s by land, sea or air—then you need
an inReach. Many people misjudge the availability of cell coverage in remote areas.
The reality is that 90% of the earth’s surface still lacks consistent, reliable coverage
since most cell towers are located where people live, not necessarily where they enjoy
outdoor escapes. Smartphones frequently do not work when traveling in remote areas
or in extreme weather conditions, and international roaming charges are expensive.
inReach helps you stay in touch no matter where your adventure takes you.
FIND YOUR WAY THERE AND BACK, EVERY TIME.
inReach Explorer has all the features listed to the left, plus built-in navigation capabilities:
Create or view routes including
distance and bearing information.
Mark key locations, such as a campsite
or vehicle location, with the waypoints
feature.
Navigate a route, to a waypoint
or find your way back with a
high-detail breadcrumb trail.
Built-in digital compass provides
heading and bearing information even
when standing still.
Barometric altimeter and
accelerometer sensors provide
accurate elevation, speed, and
moving average.
Plan your route(s) and waypoints
ahead of time using the Explore portal
or Earthmate app and then share your
journey with family and friends.

inREACH IS SAVING LIVES ALL OVER THE WORLD
Unlike many other popular emergency and satcom devices, such as Globalstar SPOT, PLBs
and EPIRBS, inReach allows you to receive a delivery confirmation of your SOS distress
signal and then communicate back and forth with GEOS, the search and rescue monitoring
center. Many other devices can provide you with confirmation that your distress message
was sent, but only inReach provides confirmation that your message was actually delivered.
You will also be able to receive instructions, get ETA info, and answer questions from the
experts at GEOS. Plus, you can send and receive messages with your family and friends
to keep them informed of your status, make arrangements on where to meet once you’re
rescued, and provide additional peace of mind.
“We could not have flown the patient out as
quickly as we did without the inReach. I had
never officially used it (inReach) until that day.
I am so impressed, I will most certainly be
purchasing one for my own personal use.”
– Ivan Kosorok, Carboun County SAR
“I am a great believer in this kind of technology.
Now DeLorme has the best and has certainly
taken it to the next level. I would like to see
everyone who is out in the wilderness, in
whatever conveyance, carry one of these as a
matter of personal responsibility.”
– Will Johnson, rescued plane crash survivor
“Thank you for your extraordinary efforts
that helped save the life of my daughter,
Amanda. We were deep in the backcountry of
Rocky Mountain National Park when she had
a diabetic emergency that required prompt
hospitalization. Our inReach gave us our only
hope for her survival and it performed textbook
perfect, and so did the SOS dispatch personnel
[GEOS].”
“If you’re going to travel to places where you’re
encountering a dangerous situation, I don’t
see any reason why you wouldn’t use modern
technology as a backup, just in case, and the
DeLorme inReach provides that. It helps to take
stress out of the environment and it helps solve
problems.” – Stan VanderWerf, rescued hiker
– Chip Sandstedt, father of rescued hiker

emergency, you will be able to communicate the nature of your emergency and answer
questions to ensure that the most appropriate help is dispatched.
Prepaid Search & Rescue and Medical Evacuation Benefit Programs

DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT...
“My adventures have taken me to the most remote areas on earth
where cell phone coverage is non-existent. inReach not only gives
me peace of mind knowing my message has been relayed—critical in
an emergency situation—but allows me to stay in touch with friends
and family at home. This is a must-have for any adventurer.”
Eric Larsen, Polar Explorer
“Simple and effective! inReach delivers exactly what I need while on
expedition. The device’s interface makes it really easy to send and
receive messages or activate the tracking feature. With DeLorme’s
MapShare online tool, they are the perfect combo to make sure that
my fans follow my whereabouts.”
Daniel Fox, Wild Image Project Photographer
“inReach has changed the game, enabling me to send and receive
text messages from anywhere my travels take me. I can even post to
Facebook updating my fans on the big game that I’m pursuing.
I never enter the woods without the safety net of my inReach.”
Gregg Ritz, Hunt Masters (Outdoor Channel)
“When I’m paragliding hundreds of miles through remote terrain a
simple injury could be life-threatening and a major injury is gameover. But with my inReach people know exactly where I am and I
can reach anyone almost instantly. Having two-way communication
saves time, energy and the peace of mind alone is worth ten times
the investment. It’s my life, and I feel good that inReach has my back.”
Gavin McClurg, 2015 National Geographic Adventurer of the Year
