Free yourself from keeping the crew together. One stop drop so you don’t have to be the location cop.

Better than dust for most things

Thank you for creating the beginning of an app thats better than dust. It still has a ways to go, but it has the basics done and many features that are better than the other apps already.

Not showing any BM data so far

The camp listings are out for a few days, yet the app doesn't show them, even without location. Let's hope that changes soon.
