Expedition’s goal is to make your adventures more enjoyable, less stressful and to help you travel with confidence. So lets discuss some common issues with working from the National Parks.
Cell Phone Reception & Internet Access
Unless you mail in all your work you are going to need internet access wherever you travel and stay. This can be very difficult to guarantee 100% coverage wherever you go but Expedition does have solutions to greatly increase your odds. We have electrical solutions that will greatly increase your cell phones reception in remote areas helping create a stronger internet access both on the road and at the camp site. These systems can be very effective for reaching far away cell towers that cell phone antennas can not reach on their own. Hotspot internet off your cellphone then poof you can be on a Zoom meeting in Zion National Park.
How to Power Your Computer?
We have internet sorted out but how will we power the computers? Expedition has solutions for that too. Expedition will install an Off the Grid Power System into your vehicle to power your laptop, monitors and most anything else you could need. From solar power to heavy duty battery systems we have experience building overland power solutions. We handle these systems on a case by case basis, custom building each package to the exact power output needed by each client. We will create a scaleable system that that can change if your needs change.
