Der PowderGuide ConditionsReport ist ein innovatives Tool, welches die Freeride- und Tourenplanung im gesamten Alpenraum erleichtert. Unsere ReporterInnen sind erfahrene Freerider, Bergführer und Locals, die ihre Gebiete hervorragend kennen und über die Schnee- und Freeride-Bedingungen ihrer Region berichten. Durch die PowderGuide ConditionsReports erhalten unsere LeserInnen während des gesamten Winters Updates zu Schneelage, Schneeverhältnissen und Lawinensituation in den Freeride-Regionen. https://www.powderguide.com/conditions.html Steigende Leserzahlen, laufend neue ReporterInnen, zusätzliche Gebiete und der Wunsch unserer Community die Erfassung der ConditionsReports zu überarbeiten, waren unsere Motivation für die stetige Verbesserung des Informations-Tools. Aus diesem Grund entwickelten wir diese App, um all unseren Reportern die Möglichkeit geben zu können, noch einfacher, schneller und übersichtlicher ConditionsReports zu erstellen. Neben einer zuverlässigen GPS-Ortung, Info-Checkboxen und erleichtertem Bilderupload bietet diese App nun auch die Möglichkeit einen Report offline zu erstellen und diesen automatisch hochzuladen, sobald man wieder mit dem Internet verbunden ist. Dank unserem sehr engmaschigen Netz an ausgewählten ReporterInnen können wir die PowderGuide Community laufend mit aktuellen und authentischen Berichten versorgen. Mit dieser App sogar noch schneller, genauer und informativer denn je. Join now! Für Feedback und oder technischen Support wende dich bitte an: app@powderguide.com
