Some people go to the wilderness to get away from things like this. Here is an upcoming phone that will allow cavers in remote wilderness areas in the U.S. to make an emergency phone call.
http://www.terrestar.com/retail.php Do regular cell phones work now up at Three-mile Hill? If someone were to have a serious accident at a cave like Three-Finger's Cave, you would be able to make a call from just outside the entrance. Right? Or any other remote caves that face south and are high enough up the canyon to see the southern sky. A phone like this would be more practical in a really remote area, where you plan to be out of contact for a week or so. Like in the Tongass National Forest or some wilderness area in Montana, Idaho, or Wyoming. I guess it wouldn't work up at Conrado Castillo?
