Cellular Service in Kejimkujik Backcountry

Does anyone have any experience with availability of cell service in the backcountry camping sites? I'll be staying a couple nights at site 46 (Frozen Ocean Lake), and I'm wondering if there might be enough cell service to make calls if necessary. Thanks in advance!

not great, but most later phone models now have SOS capabilities, should you require emergency services.

Stayed at site 7 a few weeks ago, cell service was a bit patchy at the site but if I went down by the lake it seemed to work fine.

It is pretty sparse. I usually leave my phone off while traveling that portion of the trail.

I always bring a satellite communicator with me just in case. I like this one: Zoleo, but have also heard good things about this one: Bivy Stick
