Why you should shop this Spot X two-way satellite communicator deal

Spot X

Spot X is meant to give you peace of mind while you’re out exploring or adventuring. It offers several avenues for staying in touch. Convenient features make that possible without taking away from your outdoor experiences. For example, a special check-in mode lets you quickly and easily check in with a list of approved contacts like family. That way, you can let everyone know you’re safe and okay, quickly, and then get back to your adventures. You can also send SOS messages directly to the 24/7 search and rescue center, use cloud-based mapping to track your location at a specified time, share your device and info with approved contacts, and even access a digital compass.

It acts as a wayfinder too. That digital compass helps you stay on track but you can navigate using programmable waypoints to make sure you always have your own path to travel. This is a Globalstar satellite product that uses a constellation of satellites to communicate data. That means you can transmit exact GPS coordinates when needed.

As for the device itself, the Spot X features a 2.7-inch backlit display that’s visible even in sunlight. Moreover, it’s impact, dust, and water resistant, and you can easily connect it with a smartphone app via the Spot X app and Bluetooth. When fully charged you get up to 240 hours or 10 days of use. That’s with only the ten-minute tracking mode on. Moreover, it has a fully illuminated built-in QWERTY keyboard so you can type easily. It’s sleek, rugged, and meant to take a beating but still keep you connected and everyone informed.

Normally $250, you can grab it for $212 today saving $38. Wireless plans start at $11 per month, not including activation fees.

Arc’teryx x BEAMS: The blend of Alpine tech and Tokyo style
Arc'teryx x Beams

The new Arc’teryx x BEAMS collection celebrates the brands’ 25-year collaboration and the blending of technical function with street-savvy style. The line highlights a re-creation of the 1998 Arc’teryx Theta hardshell, a Gamma softshell jacket, and Jogen bouldering pants. All come in the signature Kōyō color palette, modeled after Japan’s autumn leaves. 

I wore the Gamma Jacket and Jogen pants during the fall changeover in Virginia’s picturesque Shenandoah Valley, testing for warmth, wind resistance, and style. Here’s my take.

More than a name: Meet Eddie Bauer, the true-life explorer behind your outdoor brand
Clothing, Hat, Face

From the time I was a little man, I excitedly tugged at the shirt tails of my father and grandfather every time they left the house to do anything relatively outdoorsy. They would leave the house hauling gun cases, fishing poles, camping gear, hiking packs. The men of my life loved everything adventurous, and they would do it every chance they could. When I was big enough, I would be allowed to come with them. I got my own boots. I procured my own active wear that could resist the weather. I opened my own parka for Christmas. Not only was I now in the same boat with them, in the same tent with them, and in the same deer stand with them. I also wore the same brand as them. Eddie Bauer was their go-to, and it had become my go-to.

But what was it about that brand? What was it about the man behind the brand that became the man’s best friend in the wilderness? Well, here is what you need to know about the guy who ditched the work world to open an outdoor brand simply so he could go outdoors all the time. And made it possible for my grandfather, my father, and then me.
