Somehow I'm left thinking — I go hiking to get away from the internet.

Most trails I like to go on have cell coverage, but I usually don't find it a problem to just put my phone on silent. That option will always be there!

I realize that some people don't have that luxury due to work or family obligations, but for these, doesn't affordably connectivity actually open up the possibility of spending extended time outdoors that they just didn't have before?
