First of all congrats on having such an innovative and useful outdoor site. I remember getting an email from you guys about a new service that would contact friends, authorites, etc. if you did not return by a specific time. I can't find it on the site, though. Was it ever implemented?

Thanks, S. F.

Hi S.,

Thanks for the feedback! Sadly this feature could not be implemented due to massive liability issues.

This was decided because it became clear that some people were going to stop contacting their friends and solely rely on our systems. If we had server issues or if the user made a typo this could be a disaster.

Thanks again for your feedback,
