I have 50+ apps on my iPhone and this is one of the top ones. I wish more apps did this — all content is available offline and combined with GPS location services, you can easily navigate your progress on one of our NP trails while you hike. That’s really important because usually you can’t get cellular data service while hiking in the wilderness. We’ve been using it in Yellowstone and Grand Teton parks and it’s been more helpful than the NPS hard copy maps! Thanks REI, GREAT work!

I really appreciate that REI put this out and offers offline maps with gps tracking throughout the national parks for free. I almost bought all trails for $30 because I was worried about a snow covered trail in Yosemite but REI tracked me perfectly, recognized every step, never lagged, and even tracked when I turned left and right in real time. I was able to follow where the trail should be underneath the snow using this app.

Though I only used this app a week ago while I visited Bryce Canyon for the very first time! I really enjoyed using it because it has the NPs to choose from and options of Gems ( The best Viewpoints ) and Hikes that have reviews to help navigate you to what you would consider doing. I didn’t have service but the app worked to show me what to visit in the park which was super cool! A big time saver!
