The Garmin inReach Mini 2 is a compact, lightweight satellite communicator and GPS for use off the grid. Two-way messaging lets you send messages, post to social media, and message from one inReach device to another while in the field. In an emergency, you can send an interactive SOS message to Garmin's 24/7 emergency response coordination center.
The MapShare feature shares your location with friends and family at 2-minute tracking intervals. The Breadcrumb Trail feature saves your route so you can see the ground you've already covered. The device can also create hidden, temporary tracking recordings once every 10 minutes.
The interface has a higher resolution display that shows relevant data at a glance, similar to a widget view on select wearable devices. A digital compass gives an accurate heading even when stationary. Compared with the older model, it has a faster time to first GPS fix and longer battery life. Connect it to the Garmin Explore app for messaging, weather, detailed topo and aerial mapping, navigation, and trip planning.
