TrailsIQ is the field-operations app for trail-maintenance crews. Whether you're patching a washout, replacing a sign, or rerouting a section after a storm, TrailsIQ keeps your work documented, your team coordinated, and your office with the data they need — without coming back to a desk to log it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Log maintenance issues from anywhere on the trail. Drop a GPS pin, snap photos, set a priority, hit save. Issues sync to your organization's dashboard in real time. • Set trail status from the field — open, closed, partial, advisory. The moment you change it, followers of your organization get a push notification on the TrailsIQ Report app. No more "is the trail open?" calls during a storm. • Catalog infrastructure — bridges, signs, gates, water bars — and inspect it with a guided walkthrough that grades what you find and files follow-up work for anything that fails. Trails get inspections too. The app surfaces what's overdue. • Talk it through on the item itself. Every issue carries a discussion thread with photos and @mentions, so the question and the answer live with the work. • Plan a new line before you cut it. Draw or walk a route and the app scores it against grade and side-slope rules, flagging fall-line sections and pitches that are too steep to hold. • Record GPS trail tracks as you walk, ride, or rebuild a route. The recorder works in your pocket — lock the screen and keep moving; the track keeps growing. Edit vertices on the map after you stop, then save it as a new trail or correction. • Run volunteer days and events with signup forms, online waivers, and per-event reminders. Field crews see who's signed up and check folks in from the app. • Keep the crew's day in one place — a daily report anyone can post to, projects to group work against, seasonal checklists for opening and closing sweeps, and tool and material stock with counts you can correct from the shed. • Mark points of interest. Trailheads, viewpoints, intersections, parking — all categorized and searchable. • Log time spent on each task, and track expenses with auto-cropped receipt photos. Tap-scan a receipt at the trailhead — iOS's document scanner clips it perfectly. Link it to a task and export a weekly or monthly PDF. • Approve or reject incoming public reports. When a trail visitor files an issue through TrailsIQ Report, your crew gets a push notification — handle it straight from the bell panel. • Annotate issue photos with a pencil tool — circle the bad joint, point to the loose bolt — so whoever picks up the task sees exactly what you saw. MAPS MADE FOR TRAIL WORK Hillshading and contours to read the ground before you walk it, aerial imagery where it's available, and rainfall and trail-wetness readings per network so you know whether the tread will hold. WORKS OFFLINE — INCLUDING THE MAP Download a trail network before you leave signal and the map, the terrain, the trails and the photos come with you. No bars, and the map still draws. And every save — issues, structures, expenses, photos, GPS tracks — goes through a local queue that survives the app closing or your phone dying. Nothing gets lost. The queue resumes the moment you reconnect. PUSH NOTIFICATIONS When a public report comes in, your phone buzzes. Tap the banner to jump straight to the issue — no menu hunting. WHO IT'S FOR TrailsIQ is built for organizations that maintain trails — mountain-bike clubs, parks departments, trail associations, land trusts, equestrian groups. Bike parks can track lifts; climbing areas can catalog crags, routes and bolt inspections. If your team works on trails and you need a record of what was done, who did it, and when, this is the app. You'll need an active TrailsIQ account, or membership in an organization that has one.
