National Forest Explorer vs Below Me

This official app is a portal for exploring the diverse lands and heritage sites managed by the U.S. Forest Service. A powerful exploration tool, this app allows you to discover forests near you and can help you explore each destination's points of interest. Use this app for easy access to forest facts, natural, cultural, and historic information, offline and GPS maps, recreational opportunities, and other essential visitor information to enjoy our National Forests and Grasslands. The perfect companion for your next forest adventure or armchair travels, each app was developed by the forest unit’s rangers and interpretive staff and features a variety of content, including educational audio tours and natural and historic imagery. Plan your itinerary of things to see and do with easy access to information regarding recreational opportunities, trails, maps, and visitor centers. Each forest destination can be downloaded individually from the portal, allowing you to stay up to date with your favorite destinations through push notifications alerts for closures and events. Connect with Visitor Centers and Ranger Stations using one-tap calling and submit valuable feedback or report concerns with surveys. OnCell has worked closely with each forest as the official provider of their mobile apps. You can expect additional forests to be added to this app over time, as the U.S. Forest Service continues it's commitment to provide exciting and relevant visitor information in easy to access formats.

What's on the other side of the horizon? Point your iPhone or iPad at the horizon, tilt it down, and Below Me shows you the countries that lie beyond the curve of the Earth, as if you could look straight through the planet. Below Me isn't a map. It's a window. Every border you see is placed where it really is from where you stand: computed on the WGS84 ellipsoid with great-circle math and projected through the Earth along your line of sight. Tilt further and the countries get farther away. Point straight down and you're looking at your antipode.
