Find runs that fit the skiing you want to do. Carvable helps you explore resort terrain, compare runs, and plan your next few laps. Search by difficulty, pitch, vertical drop, aspect, and terrain character where the resort data supports it. Open a run for a quick overview, then explore its steepness profile and sunlight estimates. In Guide, choose three runs within your comfort level, swap suggestions, save your plan, and see the choices on the map. Save favorites and runs to try next. For a group, enter each skier's comfort level and explore suitable runs near a meeting lift. Connections and return routes are not verified. Download a resort for a simplified offline trail map and run details. Manage downloads, refresh terrain data, and see what is stored on your iPhone. Offline maps do not include base-map tiles or live opening information. Keep a run journal with quick logging, notes, and undo. Export a backup to Files and import it when you need it. Choose metric or imperial units and light or dark appearance. Terrain and sunlight estimates are not current snow, grooming, lift, or trail-opening reports. Check the resort's official information and signs. Open terrain data varies in coverage and accuracy. No account is required. Core planning works without an API key. An optional Expert Guide uses your own Claude API key and sends profile, goal, and selected terrain context to Anthropic when requested. Terrain data comes from OpenSkiMap and OpenStreetMap contributors. Built by a ski instructor in Bozeman, Montana.
