| Alaska Cell Phone Coverage |
This map tells you more about Alaska than anything else I have seen. The colored areas (two shades of blue and two shades of red) show AT&T and Verizon's coverage areas for voice and data. I was surprised to see how different they are. The link goes to a zoomable map that covers all 50 states of the USA.

| Cook Inlet and Prince William Sound The area shown is roughly 300 miles across |
Notice that they cover the land areas surrounding Cook Inlet and Prince William Sound, but they don't cover the water. I guess the FCC doesn't care about fishermen. I suspect that those two bodies of water are pretty well covered since there are no obstacles, they are surrounded by coverage, and they aren't that far across.

Does AT&T use the utility poles for connection points?
That could explain why they AT&T coverage sticks to the road network where Verizon broadcasts further afield.
