[pct-l] SPOT Connect in N Cascades

[Rebecca Wilcox]

Glacier Peak area is exactly where our SPOT did NOT work in 2012. Two
nights in a row "OK" messages were sent (or so we thought) but never
received. Most of the rest of the trail worked fine, but if you're buying
one just for that area, I wouldn't count on it working.
