With all due respect I have built out systems for the wireless space since the early 90's. I know many of the particulars but this is hardly the place for that level of discussion..

I disagree; if not here, where? In private? I think the others would benefit from hearing 'specifics' on such a topic.

With respect, I have personally made cell calls multiple times from the top of Mt Rainier as well as at various high camps, so it works.

The North side of Mt Hood is very treacherous and has been the scene of much carnage. It is a very dangerous and exposed route.
