UTMB 2025 – A Race for the Ages
The UTMB (Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc) once again delivered a spectacle in 2025, with electric crowds in Chamonix, dramatic weather shifts, and unforgettable performances from the world’s best trail runners.
Customer Review highlight - Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt
We were thrilled to receive this glowing video review from some valued customers who recently purchased a Garmin GPSMAP67i from us.
Introducing the New UK Grid Reference Finder
Finding an exact location in the UK just got a whole lot easier. Our brand-new UK Grid Reference Finder gives you accurate OS grid references, What3Words addresses, and latitude/longitude coordinates — all in one place, instantly. Whether you’re a walker, hiker, outdoor worker, student, or emergency planner, this is the quickest way to get the information you need.
NEW - Satellite Messenger Plan Calculator
Choosing the right satellite messenger and subscription plan can be confusing. With so many options, hidden costs, and different features, it’s hard to know which device – and which plan – will give you the best value for your adventures.
That’s why we’ve created two brand-new, FREE tools for outdoor enthusiasts, sailors, and off-grid explorers.
Research the contract first, device second – How to choose the right Two-Way Satellite Communicator
If you spend time beyond mobile phone coverage, whether hiking the hills of the Lake District or tackling a remote overseas expedition, a two-way satellite communicator could be your most important piece of kit. These small devices allow you to send and receive messages, share your location, and trigger an SOS in an emergency, all via satellite.
But here’s the crucial tip most people overlook:
The cost of the device is only a fraction of your total spend. Over its lifetime, the subscription plan will cost far more than the hardware itself.
In this article we look at some of the key points you need to consider before you get started.
