YES, the Okanagan Trail Riders Association have invested in a cellular booster station for the Aspen Trail Head. It is a simple device that can be used to reach 4g service in the imediate area of the station. As per the rest of the area it depends on your location. If you have line of sight to Blue Grouse Mtn you will likely have service. Cellular signal strength can be limited and dependant upon your chosen provider. Be aware that much of the trail system has no service at all.
