The Imperial Sand Dunes are 40 miles of sand with no roads, no landmarks that stay put, and almost no cell service. Glamis Guide is the map that works out there. Everything is stored on your phone before you leave. Aerial imagery, every named spot, every photo. Put it in airplane mode and nothing changes. FULLY OFFLINE High-resolution NAIP aerial imagery lives on your device. No download prompts at the ramp, no spinning tiles at the top of a hill, no dependency on a signal that isn't coming. NO ROADS. NO TURNS. JUST A HEADING. Pick any spot and Glamis Guide draws a straight line to it. Live distance, live compass bearing, and a heading tape under the banner. Out here there are no turns to give you, so it gives you the only two things that matter: how far, and which way. 80+ PLACES THAT MATTER Camps, hills, washes, vendors, and landmarks. Flagpole, Oldsmobile Hill, Sunset Hill, Sand Drags, China Wall, Swingset. Each one has a custom symbol, a full-bleed photo, elevation, coordinates you can copy, and a description covering both what it is now and how it got its name. ONE PANEL FOR EVERYTHING Search the whole dune in a couple of characters. Filter to camps, vendors, or points of interest. See what's nearby right now, what you visited last, current weather on the dune, and your saved spots - all in one place. COLLECTIONS Curated sets like Glamis Essentials: the spots every rider should hit at least once. HANDS ON THE BARS Ask Siri to open a spot or start navigating without touching the screen. A Lock Screen Live Activity keeps your bearing and distance to camp glanceable without unlocking. BUILT NATIVE Not a website in a wrapper. SwiftUI and MapKit, built for direct sunlight, gloved hands, and a phone bouncing in a bar mount. No account. No ads. No tracking.
