A great app for finding canyons and hikes with great, often updated beta provided by user input. Provides GPS coordinates, turn by turn driving directions, rappel lengths, and ability levels required to negotiate the outings comfortably. Also provides "Hype" which is a great description of the beauty, challenges, and fun one can expect.

The trailhead directions and route descriptions are terrific - detailed and accurate - and the map feature functions brilliantly whether there's cell service or not. However, the difficulty ratings are not accurate or helpful unless you're an experienced canyoneer or a twenty-something. For instance, Moonhouse in Cedar Mesa, deemed an easy hike, is actually more of an easy scramble - "hikes" don't typically include 8-foot drops - and it involves route-finding; if you're hiking with children or 50+ year-old folks, even very fit folks, that all makes a difference. The Alexander Basin Trail in the Wasatch is designated "easy," but gaining 1000 feet per mile isn't "easy" in anyone's book. I'm not really sure what "easy" or "moderate" means in this app. Please update to clarify what easy, moderate, hard, hiking, canyoneering all intend to indicate.

Is the App still having trouble? After upgrading to a newer phone (Same #) all my area Purchases have vanished, I like all the work you've put into this & would like to get all my areas installed back on the phone so I can used the app again, if this could be reconciled give higher rating

About halfway functional. The map to the trailhead doesn't work without an internet connection even if you've downloaded local maps through Google. One of the canyon routes on their website for Moab isn't in the app (bow and arrow). Pictures don't work without an internet connection. The gps trail map is fairly low quality and in at least one case (dragonfly) the map was offset from the real world. All in all, fairly disappointing for a pay app.

the developer replied to my first review and said the app did not need my email address. I wasn't talking about any email address. I'm saying I couldn't find any place to enter a PHYSICAL address.
