Heading outdoors this summer? Download the free what3words app before your next adventure!

Whether you’re hiking, fishing, kayaking, camping, or exploring the great outdoors, knowing your exact location during an emergency can save valuable time.

The what3words app has divided the world into 10ft x 10ft squares and assigned each square a unique 3-word address. If you ever need emergency assistance in a remote area, those three words can help first responders locate you quickly and accurately.
• Works even in areas with limited data service
• Helps pinpoint locations on trails, parks, lakes, and campgrounds
• Can work offline using your phone’s GPS

But it’s not just for emergencies! what3words is also a great everyday tool for:
• Meeting up with friends or family at crowded fairs, festivals, and concerts
• Marking exactly where you parked your car at large venues or trailheads
• Sharing campsite or picnic locations
• Helping others find your exact location while hiking or biking
• Avoiding confusion when cell service or landmarks are limited

Before heading out this summer:
• Download the free app
• Share your plans with family or friends
• Bring water and emergency supplies
• Check the weather forecast

Remember — when every second counts, being able to tell responders exactly where you are can make all the difference.
