Scenic Map Eastern USA for Android

Great app but requires some dedication to learn. It’s worth the time tho. Been using for several years for different scenarios. Always excels !!

What hiker wouldn’t want a sharp topo that doesn’t require a cell phone signal? And not expensive compared to buying todos for the entire eastern third of the country! Handy and a great value.

First of all, I used this app for navigating the Trans America Trail, from Tennessee to the Oregon coast. The trail itself consists primarily of unpaved and often unmarked roads. It did not disappoint. Over all I'd say that the maps was roughly 95% accurate, and rarely did a road not show up. A couple of two-track trails on the Utah/Nevada border, and the occasional dirt road. The 3-D view helped define terrain markers and locate points in a real world reference which aided us greatly while looking for an elusive unmarked turn. GPX files are easy to import, and being able to export breadcrumbs via email is fantastic. I've tried many of the offline maps for overlanding and this one has by far been my favorite for close to 4 years now.

Rather than using your imagination to read topo sas many of us have done for decades, this app allows you to feel like you are in a valley or on a peak. Excellent app.

Just tried 1st time with about a short hike. Tracked well. Maybe I missed it, but would be nice to have more detail available for a Track, such as elevation change, speed..etc. Also it seems you need to "play" the track to see it. Be nice just to get an overview of the track on a single screen. Maybe these are available and I just haven't figured it out. Should be inst manual on the iTunes app site.
