[QUOTE="user 7268, post: 380590, member: 7268"] Thanks RM ................... what makes this an even sadder event is apparently he was only 20 or 30 K from Cue . Sat phones, epirbs, GPS, whistles, compass and more can make the difference between being simply disorientated for a short while to never returning ever. Electronic devices aside there is one other item that I never leave my quad or vehicle without and I mean EVER ........................ that's a 50 cent bottle of water hanging from my belt. Unfortunately Mad Tuna who would know the environment there better than most could foresee the likely outcome. Guess I'm very saddened here as it is looking like a loss of a life that may well have been so easily avoided. [/QUOTE]
