Getting away from the hustle and bustle, cell phones included, is part of the reason I go to the woods in the first place. Since I've gotten older and less physically fit, I have started to carry one in my pack, for emergencies, but it is turned off, so it doesn't eat up the batteries.
I am old school and used to think this way. But I gotta tell ya texting on vibe is a great way to talk to others you are out with. If I am alone then it stays in the truck. Everyone knows me and my plans. If **** goes south they know where to look.
