Are cell phones a practical tool or have they become an annoyance to those looking for a wilderness experience? These electronic devices are becoming a common sight on trails as a way of reaching help in an emergency, but they can also fail or be misused
The Advantages vs. Disadvantages
If there is an emergency, such as an injured hiker on a remote trail, someone with a cell phone can call the local land manager or emergency response instead of having to hike down to the trailhead to the car in order to get help. This can save valuable time in a serious medical situation.
Oftentimes though, a cell phone cannot get a signal from a cell tower, especially in remote areas, in valleys surrounded by high mountains, in canyons, etc. If a signal is obtained, it may not be strong enough, and cut off the user during a conversation. In addition, the battery may not be powerful enough, and can lose its charge if the weather is cold.
