Cell phone coverage in Death Valley?

Hi,

I am planning to go on a road trip (with friends in a rented RV) from San Francisco to Las vegas in May going through the Death Valley, and I would like to know: from which point to which point should I expect to have no cell phone reception?

I know there’s barely any cell phone coverage going through the death valley but where about does cell phone coverage disappear and were about does it come back?

Thanks a lot for that precious information.

We will be driving from northern Arizona to Vegas in early March and don’t have a lot of time but would like to visit either of the parks. Which one is more worthwhile to visit? And how long is the drive to either one from Kingman?

www.pbs.org Biologists are on a mission to save Death Valley’s most precious treasure — the tiny Devil’s Hole Pupfish, featured in NATURE’s Life in Death Valley airing on Sunday, September 6, 2009 at 8 pm on PBS (check local listings). Life in Death Valley captures the simmering cauldron of Death Valley, the hottest, driest place in the US, epic in its beauty but punishing in its brutal extremes. In a scorched landscape marked by endless miles of salt flats, molten rock canyons, and lunar craters, survival is a miracle in itself. For more information, visit www.pbs.org

I am looking for Jill Taylor, I know she has an E-Mail, I just can’t seem to find it. I helped her establish an account with Yahoo and we have recently separated ways. I am new to this and would appreciate assistance from someone with a greater knowledge of computers. Thank you for your time.

Just wondering if anyone had any fabulous spots, hikes, or views to share. Also, what is the best camping spot? My husband said he thought there was some camping on the river…anyone know the name of that area?

We’ve already done the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, and the Valley of Fire (which was FANTASTIC!) The only sites I’ve seen on Mt. Charleston are right along the road; maybe there’s something hidden off the beaten path? We’re looking for somewhere we can pitch a tent and light a campfire, with some good scenery/hiking trails. Zion is a bit too popular but if you know of a cool spot we’re open to suggestions.
