We just completed a 7,300 mile trip through the West from Arkansas. We used our tethered Verizon phone nearly everywhere. There were only two spots that had no service - Challis, ID (where no one in the campground had a signal from the local tower), and Lone Fir NFS campground in the heart of a valley deep in the Cascade Mountains. We have a Wilson external antenna and amplifier with hook-and-loop connection that is sometimes required in remote areas but would not work in those two settings. We tether to a Cradlepoint CTR-350 router that works great. Since returning home, we have continued to use this setup, saving quite a bit over our former ISP.
