A handheld gps device makes perfect sense for your family

Provide them with meaningful protection and yourself with peace of mind and convenience, today!

REI handheld gps devices can help save your life or the lives of your loved ones. Let's face it, one wrong turn in forest and bingo, you're lost! Or suppose he takes a tumble down some ravine? That's when the two to five mile radio communication features of these units are a real comfort. But say your child cannot describe where he is- that's when all you do is ask them to stay still and remain in contact until you, having used the advanced but simple to use location features of your device, arrive safely to his side. Or picture this more likely scenario- It's lunchtime and your kids are off skiing only who knows where. They were supposed to be at lunch 20 minutes ago and the lunch lines are starting to form. It's time to round up the troops.

You are in charge here- call them or go find them yourself! Whatever the scenario, from deadly serious to just one of convenience, rei handheld gps devices supply you with all the information you need to make informed decisions and take back your connection to the outdoors. Take, for example, our Garmin Rino 110 unit. This global positioning system offers fully functional positioning features with an integral radio, providing two-way communications up to 2-miles using FRS channels. Peer-to-peer position reporting allows one RINO user to send their current global position to another RINO user within a two-mile area. Worried about privacy? Each channel has 38 sub-audible squelch codes for semi-private conversations With a RINO global positioning system, you can also talk to friends who use conventional two-way radios. Heard about breadcrumbs? You can follow your route and store up to 500 waypoints with graphic icons and 20 reversible routes then find your way back with the TracBack™ feature.
