Ratings and reviews

Wow. This opened up a whole new world for me. I found multiple trails nearby that I didn't even know existed. I love the comprehensive descriptions. I am able to see and understand more of the area and appreciate the beauty around me so much more now as these reviews from the expert lead me to exploring these spots. It's no longer about the destination. It's all about the journey now. Accurate info. You can't get lost with the map and directions provided here. I'm grateful for this reliable app!

I used to visit the site often years ago to plan hikes as it was very informative and useful, but it eventually lost its touch. This app has regained that touch and made finding and getting to hikes much more convenient than even the old website. It's a must have for hiking around Los Angeles.

Would be great but app constantly loses my location and then drops me miles from the trail I am on. Would be great if it were reliable. This happened to me when I came to a major fork and couldn't use the app to determine which way to turn. It was a bad situation.
