Re: spot

So for those of us not "in the know", is there supposed to be a spot sitting in the cabin, or???

yeah man, VARDA installed them in each of the cabins in a box with a plexiglass front on them to use in case of emergency.

Re: spot

Wouldn't it be useless as its stolen and if used it would come up as such? Kinda like stealing a sat radio receiver and trying to subscribe it?

I would imagine they have an Id number when used right?

Re: spot

Eventually someone will push a botton on the stolen Spot again...then you will know where it is. Show up with a cop and get it.....

Re: spot

awesome.

A) illegal to be @ allan creek cabin on august 9th unless they hiked ( highly unlikely)
B) stole the spot donated by whispercreek homes which HAS saved a life last season.

Re: spot

To use it you would have to register it, whisper creek should call spot and report the unit stolen, hopefully they won't use it. Hate to say it but Aug 9 sounds like it may be some local yahoos having fun. :(

I dont know about it being locals. That's a pretty major pass though the mountains lots of people travel that every summer. Who ever it is I hope karma catches up with them.

Re: spot

It would be awesome if there was some way for the Spot, once out of the case started checking in automatically right away. Might be a feature for a special model (an "emergency shelter special", so to speak) for Spot to build. Once activated, can only be deactivated again by a key or something. Love the idea, but leave it to punks to screw with stuff like that. :(
