Reviews of Avalanche Forecasts

  • Multiple issues

    Offline cache feature not working for NWAC zones and Mt Hood zone doesn’t populate even when connected to internet. Would love to give this app 5 stars for what they’re trying to accomplish, but the execution is significantly poor for the NWAC regions at least.
  • Good App

    Please update for iPad Pro screen size ?
  • Love this app!!!

    Demystifies avalanche conditions, whether you’re going to the back country or just dreaming about it.
