Ratings and reviews

OOPS! I think some wires got crossed. I just downloaded the USFS "Rocky Mountains" app, BUT it's actually the USFS BLACK HILLS app (which isn't even listed as an option under all the apps USFS has in the Google Play store).

Great app, not sure where all the hate comes from, maps are a little out dated but their other app is great for that!

Only has the NORTHERN HILLS RANGER DISTRICT map. The other 3 maps are not there to download for Avenza

What's new
