Having spent decades photographing the American West (former life) self
contained I offer the following:
You can't have too much of what you may need!
(beer,water,food,film,batteries,etc)
Cell service "might" be available on the interstate (a lot of places
I've traveled are "iffy") and probably NO SERVICE very far from
pavement.
GPS: when you make the call ("We are in dire need of beer, hookers and
a steak") just give them your lat/long and the chopper will land on your
head. [1]
Have fun, be prepared, take everything (toilet paper - leaves become
tiresome after a few days)
Best,
David in Durango
[1] or not. I ran out of gas on a "major" highway about dark thirty one
winter night; "Hello, 911? I'm out of gas, its 4 degrees and the wind
is out of the north at about 35mph . . ." 911 responds: "That is not
considered an emergency."
Wes;
Any off- road adventure needs warm clothing, communications gear (cell
phone), and water. A few energy bars would be a good idea for
emergencies.
