Beta Tip
Ever had problems hearing your Partner? Ever had laryngitis as a result of trying to scream over the wind or traffic?
Try using a pair of walkie talkies. The Motorola Talk Abouts are perfect! They come with a clip and a section to run a piece of sling through to keep them on your harness. Or better, yet, Hook them to your camelback. I'll personally swear by the durability of the Motorola's. I've dropped mine twice from over 100' on granite and they still work! Cost is any where from $20-$59 a pair. Watch out for the rebate from Fry's or Radio Shack! |
