    Without having read all the no doubt wise replies above, I’ll stick my neck out …

    Yes I hunt a lot alone due to mates often not being committed to really go in the hills on the day and often go at last minute when things align.

    Hunting alone is really like the old days before cell phones and PLB:

    Dont fall
    Be ready to turn back ( this means having enough fitness to retrace your steps or to go the long but safe way round . And trust yourself that you will turn back when it comes to the crunch)

    There are many situations where your PLB or trip intentions note will not save you.
