Safetrip

Could be useful for all runners and walkers that do trails in the USA and Canada. See below:
Hi all,While poking around for news stories about ……., I can acrossmention of a site called “Safe Trip” where you can log your info and
details about your training runs. Then if you don’t come back (i.e.
call them or log in to report your return), they will call your
emergency contact and/or the police. I haven’t tried it yet, but it
sounds like a good system for computer-literate people who train by
themselves and don’t always want to bother family/friends with every
little detail. And it’s free, but apparently covers only the US and
Canada:

. Just knowing which trailhead to startfrom would make a huge difference in a search.
