Does anyone have information on cell phone coverage in Indian Creek? I've been able to get weak coverage standing on top of Hamburger Rock with Verizon, though would like to know if there are other areas that work for either Verizon, AT&T, or Sprint. Thanks in advance.

for verizon: back of creek pasture, right around the beef basin turnoff/cat wall turnoff. both are "1 bar" situations. for slightly better coverage, drive back out towards moab to the turnoff (south) at hart's draw. this is a "1 and a half maybe bar" situation.

Agreed that you get Verizon service right at Beef Basin Bulletin Board
kiosk/sign.

You can also often get reasonable reception at the
Davis/lavender canyon turnoff

You can text from the toilet/bulletin board.

It's been about a year since I've been in Indian Creek, but I'm doubting coverage has changed since then -- I have AT&T, and I never get any service anywhere once I am new newspaper rock.

The only place I could get service to call out last week was at the Hart's Draw turnoff on the road in. I was getting emails and texts sporadically at Beef Basin, but they stopped the last day I was there. Was camped at Superbowl. Didn't try Creek Pasture. I have Verizon.
