### 5/5 — Top resource

*2024-07-08*

This is an indispensable tool for anyone climbing CO’s 14’ers.   Highly reliable for both terrain, mileage, and access points. And the community provided trip reports can be relied upon for accurate, up to date conditions.

### 5/5 — Best app ever!

*2023-11-12, version 3.1.0*

If you’re looking for a solid source for Colorado 14ers, this is it!

### 5/5 — Best volunteer site ever

*2023-06-24, version 3.0.15*

Great site for anyone looking for info on 14ers.com. App works great. Can’t say enough good things about how this is managed

### 5/5 — The best app for climbing the Colorado 14ers

*2023-04-16, version 3.0.15*

This app has the best info for getting to the trailheads, route descriptions and current conditions for all of Colorados 14,000ft mountains.

### 5/5 — It’s like I’m there

*2023-02-17*

We lived in Colorado for six wonderful years and spent lots of time in the mountains. This app was my go-to. Now that we live in Iowa, I appreciate how this excellent app keeps Colorado’s 14ers at my fingertips. It’s like I’m there!

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2022-07-20, version 3.0.12*

Thank you Bill Middlebrook for this great website 14ers.com and now I have discovered the great free app by the same name. I am about to do my 52nd peak. The website is invaluable. I am about to do my first peak using the app, and found the downloads of Photos and Maps very easy. Very user-friendly. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your time, energy, wisdom and resources.

Best regards,

### 5/5 — THE 14ers App

*2021-11-30*

This app is incredible! If you’re doing anything regarding a 14er in Colorado, this is the app for you. It will keep you safe and informed. The images alone have helped me find routes when lost on summit hikes. Well done, Bill!

### 5/5 — Great app that just got better!

*2021-11-30, version 2.0.8*

Absolutely love having the CalTopo slope angle shading now available! Also love that I now can see all the 13ers easily as well on the map.

### 5/5 — Run, don’t walk (or hike) to download it!

*2021-06-10*

This app is top-notch, with great support, It’s long been my go-to for research and planning, as well as hours of just reading and exploring routes to add to the wish list, or even sometimes just for the imagination. It truly appears to be a labor of love and dedication to hiking and exploration as opposed to just a business or commercial interest. I wish I could give it more stars. 

The support it receives is great, there was a major recent update which had a crash glitch (first time I ever remember a problem) and it was *immediately* fixed! Thank you!

**Developer response:** Sorry about that. There was a bug created in version 2.0.5 that caused the crash. I released another update (2.0.6) yesterday that should fix the problem. If you still have problems with the new version, please email directly at: admin @ 14ers.com

### 5/5 — Awesome Guide For Colorado’s 14ers

*2020-11-28, version 2.0.4*

Best way to prepare for hikes on any of the 14ers both official and not. Would recommend this to anyone interested in summiting all 58.

### 5/5 — Vital site!

*2019-09-18, version 2.0.0*

Accurate information all the time, trip reports great.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2019-07-10, version 1.8.7*

This app links to the 14ers.com website! My favorite thing is the maps and trailheads linked to google maps. Makes finding a trail head very easy for most peaks.

### 5/5 — Invaluable Resource

*2019-06-18, version 1.8.7*

So much great info/pics. Definitely an app that has potentially saved lives due to the wealth of information!

### 5/5 — Absolutely incredible.

*2019-05-10, version 1.8.7*

I cannot live without this out. I love it, and use it more often on the website. What a blessing! I meant the guy who made on top of A 14er.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App crashing

*2022-06-22, version 3.0.9*

This app is useless at the moment, will not stay open, crashes immediately, please fix

### 1/5 — Saved images

*2022-03-26, version 2.0.10*

Unable to find these saved images in my phone…this app is awful

### 1/5 — Meh

*2021-11-27, version 2.0.7*

Not everything is accurate.  Misspellings. Geographical inaccuracies.

### 1/5 — New Update is Crashing App

*2021-06-08, version 2.0.5*

I updated my app today and it won’t open. It closes itself out immediately.

### 3/5 — Needs support for 13er routes

*2024-08-12*

Excellent for 14ers, but for those of us that enjoy skipping the Disneyland experience that many 14ers can be on weekends (read:crowds), the app really needs to support 13ers. There is an entire section on the website for them, but due to lack of app support it led me to use other apps (or old
school topographic maps) for 13er route finding.

**Developer response:** Hi, 
Are you still having problems opening the app? I replied to your comment in the 14ers.com forum but have not heard back. Sorry you’re having problems opening and I want to get it resolved in case anyone else has the same issue. -Bill M., 14ers.com

### 4/5 — Great!!! But still room for improvement

*2023-07-05, version 3.0.16*

I love how this app is free. It is amazing for that and I thank the creator(s) for keeping it so. That being said. It is basic and could use some more additions.

### 4/5 — Missing Routes

*2018-02-24, version 1.8*

Belford, Oxford, and many other peaks are missing routes.

### 4/5 — 14ers In The 21st Century

*2017-06-23, version 1.7.1*

So far, I really love the app. For now, it's useful for this armchair summiteer. My 20+ 14ers were done >30 years ago!

I can't believe our family, including Dad's 53 summits before age 50, relied almost solely on Ormes* (ugh!) and Denver Post weather forecasts. 

I thought something about this adventure was lost in era of devices and hi-tech gear. Now, I think I rushed to judgement. 

And, it's FREE!

*Don't trust Ormes with your life unless you want to get lost.

### 4/5 — Needs a completion list

*2016-08-27, version 1.7.1*

For the love of everything holy please add a completed peaks list or put a completed on/off button on each peak's page. Otherwise pretty solid.

### 4/5 — Decent app-missing log function

*2013-07-11, version 1.0*

I downloaded this app after doing our first couple ascents hoping to be able to log our visit. I need an app that will allow me to keep track of which peaks I've climbed and which ones still need to be conquered. If you can add this function- your looking at 5 stars. Great app otherwise from initial view. Lots of info...

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Incredible App!

*2026-06-15*

Wow, this app is so useful! Every fourteener is listed with all route options! Tons of pictures with detailed explanations of each route! The topographic map and satellite views are so helpful! Not to mention, all of this data can be made available offline! This app makes AllTrails utterly useless… Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Essential beta

*2026-02-08, version 3.4.1*

I rely on this resource for most of my research when looking at a peak to climb or hike!  Love this app and site!  Buy a shirt and support this great help to the hiking and climbing community!

### 5/5 — Very helpful on route

*2025-09-04*

We would have completed the summit without the app, but the offline pictures helped so much with route finding. Saved lots of time.

### 5/5 — The best

*2025-07-27*

Download it, even if you can’t get to the mountains , you will feel like you are there with all of the great info and pics.

### 5/5 — Perfect app

*2025-07-19*

We just climbed mt sneffels and this app was a huge help. I downloaded the route before we left and pretty much everytime we stopped to figure out the route, a picture was right where we stopped and showed the exact route we needed to take. There is also a map with a pink line that shows you where the trail is and where you are. I would give this app 10 stars if I could, great app and extremely helpful and easy to use

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-07-08*

Absolutely fantastic app. The ability to download offline photos is a huge timesaver + all the trailhead data being accessible with no cell service is awesome. Very rarely is something this good free of charge. I’m kicking myself for waiting until I’ve already done a bunch of 14ers to download it.

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2025-03-19*

The bloke that made this app is brilliant! Excellent app with clear and concise navigation. The app isn’t bloated with a bunch of stuff. All the information is where I need it. Quite simply, this is probably the best app I have on my phone!

### 5/5 — Start hiking now, BEST APP

*2025-02-17*

I’m currently trying to hike all the 14ers and this app is a must need. It has all the routes to all the 14ers (60+ routes) and it has a map that tells you your exact elevation and the app explains where to go on the mountain and how to not get lost! It tells you the weather, rockfall, exposure, difficulty, steepness miles and more! If you’re wanting to hike 14ers get this app right know and don’t wait to start moving!

### 5/5 — Helpful app

*2024-09-24*

While I’ve only done Grays and Torreys, this app was extremely helpful. Photos and commentary were spot on and helped me get a great sneak preview of what to expect. I also find myself using it to look at other 14ers that I’d like to try.

### 5/5 — My adventures

*2024-07-26*

I have use this app for multiple trips to Colorado and hiking Fourteeners. It always has let me in the right direction and I love the pictures in Maps.
