About AlpineQuest GPS Hiking (Lite)

AlpineQuest is the complete solution for all outdoor activities and sports, including hiking, running, trailing, hunting, sailing, geocaching, off-road navigation and much more.

You can access and store locally a large range of on-line topographic maps, which will remain available even while being out of cell coverage. AlpineQuest also supports on-board file based maps, like MemoryMap(c) maps.

By using the GPS and the magnetic sensor of your device (with compass display), getting lost is part of the past: you are localized in real-time on the map, which can also be oriented to match where you are looking at.

Save and retrieve landmarks, share them with your friends. Track your path, get advanced statistics and interactive graphics. You won't have anymore questions about what you can accomplish.

By staying fully operational out of cell coverage (as often in mountain or abroad), AlpineQuest assists you in all your desires of deep wilderness exploring...

Don't hesitate, use it right now for free!

Works well in Canadian Rockies, off grid. Blackberry 10 or Android. Going to send them $.

For 2 years used free version extensively for field work in National Forests and National Parks in the NW U.S. with great success. No issues in the field with understanding that it's a only another handy tool in the toolbox for those of us that work outside and subject to typical tech limitations when outside and in remote areas (e.g. if no cell towers, preload your maps to the scale you will be using). Only suggestion I have is that it would be nice to have ability to transfer all saved points/routes from one phone to another. Good job and thanks for the effort. Will likely buy paid version.

Even when it gets a little buggy and out of signal as long as you plot out the bulk of your route the maps are loaded in and is fantastic

I thought it is wonderful but something going as not expected. And position and satellite delay is to poor

I use it to preview hikes, check out roads to trailheads and find springs. I'm sure there are many uses for outdoor enthusiasts.

Has most of the features you'd want and all you need for day hikes.
