Another difference; I'd never carry a cell phone wall charger in the woods, always in urban areas.

I used to think the same thing, until I started noticing the outlets at out Provincial Parks and Conservation Areas. In this day and age, so many people camp in trailers and RVs, not to mention carrying cel phones, gps, etc., that most parks seems set up for them. Of course, I'm a Luddite when it comes to being in the wilderness, so don't usually carry stuff that needs recharging, but my husband and kids make-up for my shortcomings. wink

I carry my cell phone anywhere. Never know when I may need to take a quick picture, refer to a map of the place I'm at, etc. Even in wilderness there are places where you can hike to the top of a hill and get some sort of signal.
