FC VC Now Has Free Wifi

[bbbb]

There has been free wifi at the VC for many years.  Maybe it was offline for some years so seems new to you?  It used to work if you sat at the benches in the shaded area just outside the door.  But at least last time I checked they turned it off overnight!  So unless you came by during office hours, you were SoL.    It must be pretty crazy trying to use recreation.gov, which they seem to be relying on increasingly, out there.  I can roam onto the cell network and use up my ration of data in a few minutes...  or have nothing at all  A friend who has AT&T service often has decent connectivity at SPW but not very far away, and somehow from year to year, sometimes it works, sometimes no.  The SPW wifi is fine at 4 AM   on the patio behind the office of course.

It used to be that when I could visually see Stovepipe, I could get a cell signal, and that includes being high up in the Cottonwoods. It's been nice being able to get a call out. That said, I have a small sample size of trips and haven't tested this recently.
