[QUOTE="Imadogman, post: 665415, member: 813"] Wow there is a lot of people down on these guys. So easy to judge that they should have found their own way out (or shoulda carried maps and compass etc etc) but we don't really know the full circumstances and there will be always ten different opinions about how they could have done it different. In their judgement, knowing all the factors they faced, they considered themselves lost in difficult terrain and needed help. Pulled the pin on the PLB. Found safe. Found quickly. Good outcome in the end. [B] It says a lot for carrying PLBs. So far as I am concerned PLB is essential kit. In the event of an emergency it saves time and resources.[/B] [/QUOTE]
