AT&T roams out there on
Windy City Cellular. 1x is very slow with high latency - latency with phone service too. You can purchase internet on a daily basis but didn't
figure out details. If in a group a good set of walkie-talkie radios would be good to bring (I forgot mine) but this is line of sight based.

7,500 AS miles each way, and can have a free stopover in Alaska too

Also, bring all food and extra in case your plane can't land. The store is spendy and adds up fast. The place we stayed at (with
alphaeagle) had a full kitchen.
Fun place to go and had great weather in July - sunny and overcast. No real rain or wind so kinda missed the true experience.
