Here is an upcoming phone that will allow cavers in remote wilderness
areas in the U.S. to make an emergency phone call.

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?
