NPS Yellowstone National Park

I love this app, i work and live in yellowstone and its super handy when we go backcountry hiking with no signal. Such a lifesaver when the trail is washed out, only thing i wish it would do is if you could click on a trailhead to light up the trail or type in the hike you want so you dont have to fine comb the map to find this. Also be great if it had more info on trails/ how long/ how hard/ and again, where on the map

Do as the site says and download the offline content so you can use the app when no cell co stage is available. Came in extremely handy today! Suggestions for improvement - 1) have the "auto center"(?) feature track you constantly vs just centering on your location when pressed and not following your location if your driving. Easy enough to manually progress the map or retapping the button, but would add to efficiency and effectiveness. 2) An ability to drop a pin or marker to identify to other app users where something interesting you saw is/was... e.g. Bears are "here" or wolves were "there". Obviously this would need to be corroborated and have an "as of time" for the siting or the pin dropping (if offline) and/or fade away as time expires or whatnot. This could also serve as a pattern analysis function where users - or maybe even rangers - could try to anticipate what the best odds of seeing a particular type of animal was or should be able to be seen.

Worked well. Good maps. Doesn’t have ALL the trails and stops but still a great resource that can be downloaded before hand for offline mode. Make sure it finishes downloading though in the settings. Would have liked there to be a little more information about each stop but I don’t think it’s meant to be a comprehensive guide. It could be though and I might even pay for it if it was that good and with more photos. Otherwise a 5-star for convenience and exceeding expectations.

I downloaded off line content and tried to map out our route with the saved feature. However, the site continued to shut down on itself and the saved sites never stayed. So the map was useful and the description but the planning feature did not work for us. Also if we tried to keep the tablet on, powered up with the ap open and on the entire time as we navigated, it kept returning to the iPad home page shutting the ap down-that glitch was also frustrating.

I downloaded all the offline content before our trip, so when we were in Yellowstone where there’s no service we were still able to access all the information about where to stop, the map, and the tours! We also purchased a paid app for Yellowstone, but this was way easier to use and an absolute lifesaver!!
