Will I have a mobile signal while climbing high-altitude peaks like Chimborazo or Cotopaxi?

Yes, intermittently. This is a common question for our climbing enthusiasts! Local networks like Claro and Movistar have made significant efforts to extend coverage. You'll often find a surprisingly good 4G signal at most of the main refugios and even at certain points along popular climbing routes on volcanoes like Cotopaxi and Chimborazo. While it won't be constant at the very summit, you'll likely have opportunities to connect, share updates, and use emergency services from the high camps.
