RE: GPS Apps for hiking?
I don’t know about walking tracks in your country But I wouldn’t rely on gps apps for walking tracks here in n new Zealand, If you don’t turn in the right place it’s a sudden stop at the bottom of a 1000 foot drop, Or the track that was there yesterday, Is missing some critical section tomorrow.

Re: GPS Apps for hiking?
I’m looking for something that would be useful on say a 100 or 200 mile hike in the woods, say At trail. Either something GPS locations can be added to or if possible even have it follow us on a map to indicate if we are on the trail. I’m new at this so not sure what is the most helpful.

Re: GPS Apps for hiking?
For non-established trails, are you looking for bread crumb navigation? Prominent survival bloggers have evaluated iPhones and $500 Garman navigation devices in places without cell signals and found both offer the same level of accuracy. Realize though, calling the iPhone’s navigation capability GPS is inaccurate. While it does use the Geo positioning System from the United States Government, the iPhone also uses the Global Navigation Satellite System or GLONAS from the Russian government, cell towers, Wi-Fi locations, and starting with the 2017 iPhones, Galileo, the European satellite navigation system.

RE: GPS Apps for hiking?
Hello, I have a question on GPS Apps. Using Blind square, or any of the Apps, I noticed that sometimes the direction will say, 100 feet to your right or left or whatever it is. Sometimes the left or right is correct but, is there a way to know for sure if it is left or right? If you are solo, no one is around, it could be a problem to go in the wrong direction.I know that is obcious but, just asking for a friend.

Re: GPS Apps for hiking?
I have an old one here called Ariadne GPS which allows you to set Poi's and then it gives you distance and compass bearing - clock face directions to the chosen poi. Still seems quite reliable, don't know why I didn't use it more or lately since I walk water courses as much as public highways. Think it good for on-water as well as off-road. Sailing/canoeing is popular too. RobH. - Original Message - From: "Eric Caron" To: Sent: Thursday, May 07, 2020 11:46 PM Subject: GPS Apps for hiking? Hi foks, Is there a good GPS app for hiking?

Re: GPS Apps for hiking?
Thanks folks, Keep the suggestions coming. I’ll try the near by explorer. I had the app but never played with it. I have good coverage so I’ll see if the paid version is worth it if it actually is useful when hiking. I’ve got a lot to learn to see if it is helpful. If other apps might be more useful send the tips my way.
