Consider mapping in remote areas using portable device such as netbook.

1) Download appropriate area using josm and save osm file.
2) Collect gps data until handheld gps device full: at end of day (in 
tent?) transfer tracks from gps to netbook. Edit local osm file using 
josm. No net connection.
3) Iterate for several days.

[osm editing is best done while memory fresh, and area can be checked if 
problems..]

Some form of local help for josm is really needed in such cases.
