I will have to agree with Jerry!
I have flipped my CJ7 twice and both times I was solo with a passenger.
One time was a 1 hour walk to the camp we were at that is 25 miles from
the nearest house and the other time was a 3 or 4 hour walk, 8 miles in
3' of snow, back to the same camp.
Both times, I couldn't expect anyone else on the same trail for 3 or 4
months for sure, maybe a snowmobiler might have wandered by in a few
days, but....
If I had of been injured bad, I would have died.

Re: rollover accident
Cell phone? I've never been able get a signal off road, you've got
to be within five miles of a repeater.
Flare gun? Might have work for a guy here in Southern California,
any ways they're guessing he started a signal fire.
