This is the type of person that demands WiFi in National Parks :mrgreen:

You want it around the visitor centers and such, great, as long as it's kept it out of the back country for as long as possible. Eventually, technology will make it possible to tweet your selfie from anywhere. But until then, I love the fact that I can't be reached for a week at a time and can be completely untethered.

I agree Hooky, keep it out of the back country! In my opinion it is pollution ! Just what I want is internet in the bush :(
I don't even take my phone! I am sure I am not alone alone when I say this. If you can't unplug ....GO SOME PLACE ELSE! leave the last wilderness wild! Technology has a place, but some of us need a true wilderness experience.... Some of you know what I am talking about :) some of you think you do :( some of you are all, but I need my email! :shock: you have no right to be critical of technology! WHATEVER! I can't change it, It is coming .

Sorry for the rant, but I feel passionate about true wilderness and its medicinal value :)
