2nd Field Test
First, I always start out by turning tracking on.
Second, create a course and start navigating.
Third, near the end of my hike I selected TRACBACK, and found my way back to the starting point.
Fourth, send a message letting my family know I’ll be late. This gives them a heads up on my situation and helps them to relax a little.
Lastly, stop tracking and go home and sit by the fire.
Final Thoughts
The Garmin GPSMAP 67i is really one of the top satellite messengers on the market in 2023 and it, along with the Garmin inReach Mini 2 are my two favorite satellite communicators I carry with me on my outdoor adventures.
