If you can't stand the heat....

Cellular telephone coverage is spotty in certain parts of the desert.  So, if you have a problem, your options may be limited. The  ability to utilize an alternate form of communication, such as ham radio, is a good idea.  The odds favor finding a nearby repeater, and many of them are "linked" to each other via the internet, are pretty good. Of course, you need a license to transmit on ham radio frequencies, but the license is not that hard to obtain.
