This year we plan to go to Pickeral Lake and I may need to be reached about a niece with cancer. Pickeral is not deep into the Quetico, the eastern part is near French Lake campground and the western part not far from Nym. Has anyone knowledge about cell signals on the lake, and if so, what parts? thanks. Eyedocron |

Although I'm somewhat conflicted by reporting this, but I understand your need for communication. I'm willing to bet you'd get an adequate signal on Pickerel Lake. There's a large AT&T tower in Atikokan that's visible from the Dawson Trail Campground on French Lake, unfortunately. ("Moose" from Morris Camp informed me that the tower that's seen from French Lake was in fact AT&T.) Although I haven't called from the campground, I did place a call to my wife from the Nym Lake EP parking lot a few years ago, (August of 2012). The reception and connection were crystal clear from the Nym Lake parking area, for what it's worth.) Just to clear my conscience, that is the only time I have used a cell phone anywhere near Quetico! :-) Hans Solo |
