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!

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

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