About this app

Beyond the Guidebook: The Definitive Rock Climbing Resource.

• Find outdoor climbing areas near you, and navigate to them, using the map. This super-handy new feature is one of our personal faves.
• The much requested route finder: Easily sort routes by discipline, difficulty, star ranking and more. If a 4-star M9 is your thing, we'll help you find it.
• Search our entire database of 155,000+ climbing routes, even offline.
• Download route beta, photos, and topos state by state for offline use — because the best crags often have the worst reception.
• View a climbing area’s route stats (how many 5.11s are there?) and critical info (when is the raptor closure again?) in a single glance.
• Chat, ask questions, or put out a call for partners in our forum.
• Rate routes and photos, keep track of attempts & sends, or make a to-do list
• It's free to download and free of advertising too. Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Ratings and reviews

Things that are STILL broken: - New tick date changes +/- a day almost every time. - Can't load other people's ticks. - Can't expand/zoom on forum photos. - Can't add photos to forum posts via app. - Can't add comments to routes via app. - Can't play videos in full screen, whether embedded in a forum post or going to the actual site (like YouTube) inside the MP app. - New routes/areas are added to MP website and are available on iOS almost immediately but weeks later still not on Android.

I'm thankful that an app like this has come about where climbers can share experiences.... but the app itself is pretty frustrating. At least for Android, I can't precisely locate routes, search for climbing types and overall just have to do all the foot work. If anything it's just a basic tool for pointing in the right direction, the rest is up to you too research and put the pieces together.

The Mountain Project website is great, and the app used to be as well- a convenient way to access very useful beta offline, while you're out there climbing. But the app has changed in several key ways. First, you can no longer download individual areas, instead you must download an entire state at a time- all or nothing. And that takes a huge amount of memory, hundreds of megabytes per state. Worse, this data can only be stored on internal memory- the app does not use the SD card, or give you the option of using an SD card for data storage. And the app itself cannot be moved to SD card, since the developers turned that option off. Finally, the app is entirely nonfunctional unless you have those areas downloaded. It's not just a matter of working offline, even if you have great reception with data, the app will not show you any information unless you have that area downloaded. Since I have an older phone with limited internal memory, I've been forced to delete the app because I couldn't spare ~500mb of internal memory for New York State, and the app was useless without that data. So if I want to see MP info on my phone, I have to use a mobile browser.
