Hikes within cell range

Post by hikerdw »

Is there a way to search for hikes that have cell coverage? The obvious areas on the east side are South Mountain and MSP. Any others areas? I am on call this week but am hoping to get out for at least a short hike.

"Every time" ????

Not sure I want to go hiking with you! ;)

(But at least you know how to call for help!)

Last time I called 911 it was for a crazy mostly naked guy in the middle of a Sunnyslope intersection trying to kick cars during rush hour. But not on a hike (so far :pray: ).

Wait so is it illegal to kick cars naked in the middle of Sunny Slope?

Man.... I miss living in the 'Slope. All I get now are marauding bands of feral chihuahua's.

Only once on a Hike, but I didn't have Service so it was a moot point...Usually it's about incidents on the Freeways or around the Neighborhood....

"Or around the neighborhood"? Does this mean you live in Apache Junction as well? :scared:
