We get this question a lot, and until today we did not know the answer. As soon as you don’t want cell reception you can’t get away from it! So Spencer (GPS Kit’s lead developer) and I geared up to test GPS Kit at Squaw Peak near Provo, UT.
What we did not realize is that this would almost be the end for us, for no sooner had we stopped the motorbikes on the side of the road did a Cadillac Escalade scream around the corner going at least 45mph (dirt road). As he turned to miss us he went into a powerslide and nearly took us out. It all happened so fast that by instinct we had both jumped off the bikes and prepared to jump off the ledge.
So be careful! So, from the irresponsible to the magnificent, I watched this paraglider (pictured above thanks to iPhone) take off from Squaw Peak on the way home.
Anyway, the results made us proud... the GPS works fine even when you have no cell signal.
