Starlink Adds Passport-Based Travel Registration for International Use
Starlink now requires customers to complete travel registration before using the service outside the country or territory where their account was first registered. The process may ask for personal details such as legal name, nationality, birth date, passport information, a passport copy, and a live portrait. For RVers crossing into Canada, Mexico, or the U.S., the safest move is to check the Registration Requirements section in the Starlink account portal before leaving reliable backup internet coverage.

Two brothers were injured May 4 while hiking near Mystic Falls in Yellowstone National Park, in an area that used to be closed to spring hiking under the park’s former Firehole Bear Management Area rules. Yellowstone officials believe the incident involved a female grizzly with two to three cubs, and temporary closures remain in place near Old Faithful while the investigation continues. The case has renewed attention on spring bear safety, including hiking in groups, carrying bear spray, and staying alert in bear country.

The debate is now back in the spotlight, along with the everyday safety steps hikers and campers need to take in bear country.
