FAQs
Just like having the right pair of boots, putting reliable offline GPS maps and navigation at your fingertips can be priceless. But don’t take our word for it:
“This app saved my toes! Tried this out when backpacking Big Bend for the first time. Ended up getting snowed into a mountaintop campsite with a historic amount of snow. This app gave us the confidence we were going the right way to return to the base when we couldn’t see any trail or tracks at all and needed to get down in time to prevent frostbite.” — Apple Store 5-star review
