I have a Garmin Rino GPS/radio, a cellphone and a paper map that I always take with me when I ride my snowmobile. Why you would want to wander about Russian mountains essentially bareassed is a mystery to me.

It was the first guided tour I had and the guide basically told us to keep in touch and play follow the leader. Get lost, stop and the guy in front should stop and so on. This was a group of people we never met before. Not much good a map does if you never learned how to read it. If they had programmed the course in my GPS that might be different. That is why I keep a GPS on me whenever I travel. That way I know how to get back home. Guide did warn us and we were prepared. Those numbnuts weren't and since they didn't stop like they should till the whole group stopped for a break, I wasn't feeling charitable towards them. Don't care what they do but I have their names so if ever we were to take a tour, I'd make damned sure they were not in front of me but behind me. Then maybe I can try return the favor.

Hey, that is my story and I am sticking to it. Of course, I will tell the new model that I would like a little test drive first.

The FSB, which replaced the KGB, doesn't do that any more. They send them to be real estate agents in Michigan, where they die of despair.

Considering how cheap and available a Thuraya is, why not get one? It also has a GPS feature.

They were probably offed by the Russian mob, come on...
If I was going on a backwoods ride like that I would want to bring some stuff...a good lighter for starters, a real knife, maybe a few MRE's would be nice if you got lost, rope, map, GPS, GPS, and GPS. My line of thought would be if I have to spend a few days out here what do I need to keep alive...
