Could be useful

Looks like this app could be a very helpful and informational tool. However, the font is too large and can’t be adjusted for my device and won’t let me scroll down to read all the information that may be available. I’ve tried it on my ipad and iphone. I’ll be deleting it

Broken

I look at each page with excitement… I read scroll down…. I see
Articles saying things like…
Best berries are…..and nothing they leave you hanging.
Best think about King Salmon is….. nothing left me wondering and hanging 🤔

Great for off-the-beaten path

It’s easy to find info in Alaska’s major destinations. But I’m in Nome right now, where it’s hard to find info, and the app gives me so much history about each of the notable buildings, places to stop on the drives out of town, and cool stories about what went on here. Obviously, a lot of research went into it. Very enriching! Works great, too.

So many broken links

It’s ok as a starting point for finding places and things to do but the majority of links are broken and it gets frustrating
