Hi all,

Having switched to an iPhone from a simbian, I'm now at the stage of no longer 
wanting to throw my iPhone down the garden but can see how the many apps are 
actually practical and useful.

One thing I was wondering if there is an app for though...

Could someone go out for a walk, logging their route as they went on their 
phone.  They then pass me the route they took, and I can then follow that same 
route.

I am after a sat nav for walking, but also where I have defined the route to 
take - not just the start and end points.

I would like Voiceover to give me directions e.g. Continue on bearing 0 degrees 
for 100 metres, turn right in 10 metres and so on.

My specific purpose is to see if I can go for a walk in the woods by myself.  I 
live near a large forest which has a large network of well defined paths on it 
and I think my vision is good enough to follow a path, but I need to know which 
path is the right one.

Other useful features might be for the person laying the path to be able to set 
comments such as "Gate across path with handle to the right".

Browsing the app store there are many GPS map applications but I suspect they 
are too graphically orientated and voiceover wouldn't give me sat nav like 
directions.  

Does anyone know of any apps that could do the job I'm after?

thanks all,

Chris
