replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7. Absolutely terrible idea. How are the wild animals going to afford mobile phones on the amount they're paid? #hikerchat

A7 went to the Sierra last weekend and had cell the whole time. I was conflicted. My wife kept texting me pictures of shoes #hikerchat

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7. Good for GPS/safety I guess, but feels like modern world creeping into the natural one. #HikerChat

A7. It was nice in Yellowstone to not have coverage in so many places. Nature is enough of a distraction #hikerchat https://t.co/Nl5N7tYSui

Yes it is! ParksRx needs more attention and publicity! And our politicians need to take note! #HikerChat https://t.co/qt7SPUuvhb

Don’t forget how to use a real map and compass — and teach your kids! Phones run out of batteries, even when you’re… https://t.co/s8E84XNdCJ

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute a6: both are important. Self reflection and bonding with others in those environments each have huge value. #hikerchat

Q8. Are you doing long anything different of late that particularly adds to your enjoyment outdoors? If yes, what? #hikerchat

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7. Given current affairs, I'll just be happy we still have them. Anything else is gravy. #hikerchat

A7. It's a reflection of cultural changes, which is good. Parks aren't static. Don't like it? Turn off your phone. #hikerchat

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7) Good & bad, it could help w/ search & rescue but be a distraction from nature as well. #HikerChat

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7. I'm all for the safety aspect, but it's a mixed blessing. #hikerchat

replying to @tranquilotravel @tranquilotravel Yes! Same goes for GPS units which is why I'm old school and carry a compass. #hikerchat #geographer

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7 Mixed feelings. I guess it's inevitable in our technological world. Could be a lifesaver for people. 🤷 #hikerchat

replying to @TheSoCalHiker @TheSoCalHiker @TETONsports Haha, you're right. Can imagine what cables of Half Dome are going to look like with "live" selfies? #HikerChat

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports @Wild_Tribute A7 #hikerchat I've changed my mind—I'm for it in appropriate areas. Cell coverage adds accessibility for public.

replying to @TETONsports @TETONsports A7 I don't like it. Trouble is in order to "connect" with a younger generation, you have to do It electronically. #hikerchat

replying to @jaypeatravels There are tools like SPOT for the emergency though @jaypeatravels. I'd say use those and keep service out #hikerchat
