Yes the number of times I’ve been electrocuted trying to chop down those cell towers disguised as trees is unreal

How do you "work from home" if you don't have cell service and respond to emails and stuff?

Nah, it got pretty fucking annoying to have to "stop for message" only to find out your homie has been hurt and waiting for you to notice the sign for an hour

I don’t have any service out there, very minimal at best at the top of bridger and pk. It’s annoys the fuci out of me but let’s me focus on shredding and enjoying the day

I remember overhearing a 8-9 year old girl (on vacation with the family) realise my ski center doesnt have phone reception. She then proceded to a meltdown with the crying and the “I wanna die” coupled with “I hate this place”.

she made my day

When you just got seriously injured, then you will be glad you can call patrol, and they will be there faster.
I use my phone to call in injuries several time a season.
