    Most of that area is without any sort of cell service. Might as well throw a cell phone in the garbage with how useful one would be.

    Where they are at there isn't any phone reception until descending back into Owens valley, or the pass east of eureka valley has reception from the top.

    I think everyone should hold off on doing anything drastic until the morning hours. That's just me though.

    All i know is when you guys get together and your trucks on all 4 limbs again . You need to go to bishop and hit up Mahogany smoked meats for the best sandwich and beef jerkey you have ever had :) :anonymous:
