I just picked up my new Personal Locator Beacon, the ACR "ResQLink" model# PLB-375 and it is small but powerful.
I had a difficult ego Resistance to this decision. I did not want to accept that I might need to someday be rescued. In more than 40+ years of professionally guiding others, and thousands of solo expeditions in Alaska, I had always relied on myself to rescue myself, no matter what the trauma.
(Being old SUCKS, but it is more gooooder than the alternative).
