Kelly is right, it would be better for the friend to join the list; but beyond
that, one of the first things you are presented
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.
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
I’m looking for info on both established trails but also less established ones.
And if a iPhone is not as strong as a designated receiver I’m ok with looking
into that.
Those with experience hiking with GPS, I’m hoping have some good advice to
share.

Google Maps includes bike and hiking trails so it can offer turn by turn
directions on these. Would you be on designated trails or hiking in areas off
trail?

Can you tell me why you like it? I just heard about the app from an old 2010
book about a blind man that used it to help hike the Appalachian trail..

Hi foks,
Is there a good GPS app for hiking? I have apps for on the road but as
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
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
I think you will find the full program is still $79.99 on the App store.
However, the free version has had some upgrades recently.
But, you will need GPS coverage and Data coverage since the free version
doesn't download the maps.

Are you,MissKitty Referrin'To APH's
NearByExplorer or APH's NearByExplorerOnline?
I know APH's NearByExplorerOnline is Free on
Both Apple's iOS as well as Google'sAndroid
But
I didn't know that APH's NearByExplorer was Also
Free, is that "what" you are sayin'?

Have you tried nearby explorer? You can now download it free from either apple
or google play. I am not a hiker, but I find that it does give a fair amount
of info.
