Powder Project vs Sloper Ice and Mixed

Powder Project is your comprehensive guide to the best ski lines, wherever you are. With the thoroughness of a printed map, we offer full GPS route info, elevation profiles, interactive features, photos, and more. Like a guidebook, we suggest the best featured ski lines to explore—either near your current location or in an area you search for. Local experts show you the highlights, challenging features, and insights you need to plan a great day in the snow. • Find over 800 miles of backcountry, sidecountry, and secret stashes. • New lines are constantly added to our incredibly detailed ski ascent and descent trail database. • Your exact location is shown on the trail. • Downloaded trails work offline for when you’re off the grid. (No cell reception required!) • Enjoy high-resolution photos and detailed topographical trail maps. • We’ll sync with your to-do list and check-ins on PowderProject.com. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Sloper Ice & Mixed is a step towards our vision for the future of digital climbing resources —it’s a place for all of us to contribute to the history of Canadian winter climbing. Why is it different than (X)? The core design principle of this platform is that everyone should feel empowered to contribute to the upkeep of route descriptions, condition reports, and the epic history of winter ascents that will inspire the next generation of climbers. Sloper: Ice & Mixed uses a temporal database to preserve every version of a route description. That means you’ll never overwrite someone else’s contribution, and you can explore how a route has evolved over time. You’re also free to refine descriptions as you go, building on the history rather than replacing it.
