Leavenworth Icicle Canyon Phone Reception?

We're climbing outside of Leavenworth in Icicle canyon in a few weeks.

Last time we were there I didn't care if I had cell phone reception. These days with all the adulting I've been doing, it's nice to have service so I can work a little and climb longer.

Is there much/any Verizon cell service up the canyon?

The Verizon cell service is spotty, but it is there. When I was there, I found that I had better service the higher in elevation I went.

If you're planning any climbing on Snow Creek Wall, then you will have consistent service, with 4G from TH to the top of the wall. Driving up Icicle canyon, I usually lose reception about a half mile past the Snow Creek parking lot. I have Verizon.

You have great service with data signal at the top of Dragontail and Mt. Stuart.

My cell service usually starts to fall off after around Barney's Rubble, but I'm on AT&T.

Funny enough I always get service with sprint. Even to the 8mile campground.

Yeah id say anywhere past barney's rubble and you're gonna be fucked with verizon. Driving the 5 miles back into town to do work is worth the hassle though.
