JMT – SPOT On!

We hit the John Muir Trail tomorrow starting from Happy Isles in Yosemite Valley.  For our 211 mile thru-hike, we have procured a SPOT satellite personal tracker which we can use to alert authorities should we get into any sort of trouble (just like Survivorman!).  While we said we’re using it as a safety measure and for our families and significant other’s peace of mind, we’re also using it for gadgety fun!  With the SPOTcasting feature, over the 8 days we’re on trail you should be able to track our progress live on a Google Map through our unique page on their site.  This is a new system so we’ll see how it goes (actually let me know how is goes as we won’t be able to see it!).  Click here to go to our SPOT page.
