Emergency Waypoints - Think Safety

 

Join the Good Sam Club!

Handheld GPS units are excellent companions for any outdoor activity. They tell you where you are, how to get to your destination and some even tell you where your human companions are. But their real benefit is to direct you to safety.

Obviously when you arrive at your staging area you load your waypoint into your Handheld GPS unit so you can find your way back there. In an emergency situation would you know where to go from there? Hey, you are using your GPS because you do not know the area, right?

Plan ahead, before leaving home, locate the nearest emergency facilities and enter the coordinate into you GPS as emergency waypoints. This will assure the quickest route to emergency help if needed.

Go one step farther and input the location of nearby ranger stations and/or dwelling that parallel your route, as emergency waypoints. If an emergency occurs while on the trail or water you can head straight for the nearest help.

No one plans to be placed in an emergency situation, but accidents happen. Being prepared can turn a real disaster into a minor inconvenience. Treatment and Prevention of Outdoor Emergencies

For your safety, plan ahead. Preload emergency waypoints into your handheld GPS unit, to get you to the nearest help in an emergency.

Using your Apple iPhone 4 as a GPS

Framed-iphone-4
An Apple iPhone 4 is Bluetooth ready right out of the box. This means pairing your iPhone 4 to your Bluetooth Helmet (or other Bluetooth headset) is a snap!

 

Now that you are paired iPnone 4 to Bluetooth helmet what apps are you going to acquire for your iPhone?

 

Sure you’re synced into the phone and you can listen to your tunes; but what about GPS navigation?

 

All new electronic gadgets hitting the market today tout the ability to communicate worldwide and slice bread. It might be the best electronic bread slicer on the market, but how good is it as a phone. It will only perform one function well.

 

So before you spend your hard earned money on a GPS app for your iPhone 4, consider exploring the new Handheld GPS Units available. These GPS units are specifically design to perform one function (some times more). For truly handsfree voice activated GPS navigation through your Bluetooth helmet you will need a GPS device. A GPS device will also have a lager display, be weather proof and can be mounted securely to your bike or ATV with a GPS Motorcycle Mount.

 

Some models of handheld GPS units have 2-way radios which can be paired with your Bluetooth helmet so you can communicate with fellow riders in your group.

 

A GPS app for your iPhone 4 will tell you where you are and the address of the nearest burger joint, but, if you are off road on your dirt bike can it get you back to your staging area?

 

Bottom line; The Apple iPhone 4 is newest best wireless phone to-date. The current GPS apps fall short of a true GPS device.

Don’t Depend On The Luck Of The Irish. Use GPS Navigation.

If you think you can ALWAYS find your way EASILY in our world today without a GPS…you are full of BLARNEY ("Gift of the Gab"). Get Real…Get a GPS!

Our word is changing faster than maps can be printed and yesterday’s landmarks are all but gone.

GPS for cars are designed to get you to your destination in a timely manner. This means less of your time is spent searching for obscure road signs or guessing the proper lane to make an exit. With today’s gas prices, missing an exit or driving in circles will cost you a lot of money.

Handheld GPS units designed for the outdoor enthusiast will keep you on track and deliver you to your destination using the shortest or most preferred route. And of course it will let you know where you are and how to get home should you loose your way.

With the speed and range of ATVs and snowmobiles, anyone using off road vehicles can get lost faster and farther than their pedestrian counterparts. Using a GPS motorcycle mount (designed for motorcycles, ATVs and snowmobiles) to mount a portable or handheld GPS unit to your off-road rig is a great safety feature.

Don’t depend on luck to keep you save while driving. Accidents can happen when diverting your attention from the road to you GPS. A good way to prevent accidents is to sync your GPS unit to a Bluetooth headset. This “handsfree” option is quickly becoming law in many states and for good reason. Bluetooth motorcycle headsets are also available for any helmet wearers wanting to go “handsfree”.

If you plan to link your GPS to a Bluetooth headset, be sure it has a Bluetooth “handsfree” option available.

To see how little it costs to purchase a GPS unit that will I turn;

  • Save you gas money.
  • Make more efficient use of your valuable time.
  • Prevent you from getting lost and possibly save your life.
