Bug fixes and maintenance

User reviews

Stop trying to make onX happen in order to use this

I absolutely hate using this app now that the owner forces you to make an onX account to use the services on a desktop. I’ve gone back to actual book guides because they, at least, don’t force me jump extra hurdles at a whim to access data that’s user-created and maintained. I’m not sure why users are being forced into onX, but stop trying to make it happen without their consent.

OnX has RUINED these apps

Ever since OnX backcountry acquired the “project” apps (hiking project, trail run project, MTBproject, powder and mountain projects) these are useless. They crash within seconds whether using data/wifi or using the downloaded map.

I can’t help but think it’s their way of acquiring user-based data to plug into their subscription- based platform for a profit.

Give steepness in degrees

It would make sense to give the steepness in degrees, rather than % grade. Most avalanche teaching and forecasts talk about degrees.

Please add Arizona

There is some good skiing in Northern AZ and we even have our own avalanche center. Unfortunately nothing in the app about AZ, either in the Flagstaff or White Mountain areas.

So so helpful

I’ll be in Colorado for the winter and the reviews and maps are so helpful to get to know the areas and how to travel safely.
