I agree with the comments about joining the Ham community. With repeaters, communications can be very reliable.
However, if you wheel in logging country and use logging roads to get to your off-road trails, you'd better have a CB radio and call out your mile markers (if present) when on logging roads. And listen carefully for those loggers calling out their locations. Those logging trucks don't slow down very easily and if you know one is coming, you can "climb the bank", if necessary, and get out of the way.
