About this app

This app makes it easy to see current danger levels for every forecast center in North America. It shows the present danger by coloring the forecast regions on a map and allows people to select a future timeframe for the centers that support it (Today/Tomorrow/2 Days Out).

Ratings and reviews

Older version was better, in that the written forecast fit to the size of the screen. This is no longer the case, nor can the zoom be controlled.

This is nice! It let's me just click on an area and go straight to the avalanche authority for it. It also has general color coding but of course you should dig deeper and understand more. I like it.

Updates avalanche reports from all major centers across the U.S. every day. Great tool for the tool belt! Use it from the White Mountains of NH to the ranges in Alaska.
