I’ll dig you out

Confidence is high after practicing my beacon skills.  It took a while to find the power button, and who knew the beacon had a transmit and search mode.  Pic number 1 shows my first time on a single burial.singleHowever after a few rounds I was able to figure it out and worked my way up to multiple burials.  Check out pic number 2multipleThat is right, if you get buried I can dig you out.  There is one problem, when I went to use the probe I found that the clip that hold the system together was missing.  It was a great eye opening experience.
