Community-Built. Resilient. Open.
Inland NW Mesh is a volunteer-driven initiative building a decentralized, off-grid communication network across the Inland Northwest — and growing.
When earthquakes, wildfires, ice storms, or infrastructure attacks take down cellular towers and the internet, communities lose the ability to coordinate. We exist to change that.
Our network of low-cost LoRa radio nodes operates completely independent of commercial infrastructure — no subscriptions, no central servers, no single point of failure.
Emergency Comms
A resilient backup communication layer that keeps working when earthquakes, wildfires, and ice storms take everything else down.
Community Owned
No corporation, no government agency, no single point of failure. The network is owned and maintained by volunteers across the Inland Northwest.
Off-Grid Ready
Solar-powered LoRa nodes run independent of commercial power and internet. No subscriptions, no central servers, no outage that can silence us. See recommended hardware →
