From our friend Leon C. Nelson,
"Many
thanks for your kind generosity in providing Team-TarpMan a
TerraFix ACR PLB for possible use during our epic expedition
this past week on the Continental Divide Trail in the Wind
River Range of Wyoming."
"As
you can see from the photo, we were in very, very scenic country,
and the peace of mind afforded us by the TerraFix was much
appreciated!"
"I'll
be returning the device to you via mail tomorrow, with Huge Thanks
from the entire team! You
can be certain we're pleased we didn't have to use it!!!"
"PLB
RENTALS, LLC PROVIDED TEAM-TARPMAN WITH A TERRAFIX
ACR 406 PERSONAL LOCATOR BEACON. This PLB is pictured
(right) with the East Fork River of the Wyoming's Wind River
Range in the background. The recently re-designed TerraFix
is now very compact and has a GPS feature that permits added
location-accuracy in the event of a need for Search and Rescue."

From Ron in Ypsilanti, Michigan
Pictures from the French River Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada
"
My
trip is complete and the PLB is in the mail. I appreciate
the service you provide to wilderness travelers (my wife
does as well). A friend and I completed a week canoeing
the French River in Ontario. Having a PLB with
us provided an increased level of security, particularly
when we encountered a potentially dangerous reptile (the
rattlesnake was released unharmed). We shared campfires
a few nights with other travelers and I took the opportunity
to explain the operation and benefits of the PLB system. No
one was aware of the availability of these devices. Hopefully
the word will spread. Thanks again. " |

Area in North Georgia
"Just wanted to say THANKS! for getting that PLB to me so quickly! (My
wife wouldn't let me go on a solo camping trip without it!) You
guys offer a great service which will probably save hundreds if
not thousands of lives. Thanks again!" |

limited outside support in an expected time of 14 days." |

Thru Hike of the Pacific Crest Trail
"My name is Ian Carbone. I
will be hiking 2,655 miles from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific
Crest Trail beginning April 25th this year. I cannot afford
my own PLB, though I would love to have one on my hike for safety considerations
and piece of mind. I'd be happy to promote your services/website
to the 500+ hikers at the PCT kick off gathering to the
hikers outdoor recreationalists I meet along my 5 month journey." |
PLB Rentals, LLC is
pleased to provide Ian a complementary rental for the duration
of his adventure. |
