Moab Bike for the year 2016 includes 34 new trails (some of them are connectors) in the Gemini Bridges/Horsethief campground area, the Amasa Back area and the South Klonzo area. It also shows a number of refinements and minor corrections to existing trails. There are 169 trails total. Otherwise, this release works exactly the same way as the previous release of version 3.1 early in 2015.Moab Bike builds-in most Moab, Utah area mountain bike trails and displays your current GPS position against Google maps, enabling you to view, evaluate, find and navigate these trails. Trails are color-coded for difficulty. Tapping a trail marker highlights the trail and shows its name, difficulty (in more detail), and length. Most trails contain elevation information, and if so, total up and down grades and an elevation profile plot are shown. Any of four map layers (roads, terrain, satellite and hybrid) are displayed using long-press. Views may be translated, zoomed, rotated or tilted with the usual gestures.
A search feature allows you to find trails by name from an alphabetized list and return to a zoomed in map display centered on that trail.
km and miles scales are shown on the map for your convenience in estimating distances.
While navigation is quite simple, detailed instructions on how to use this app are included on its Info page.
The trails presented here are those suggested and endorsed by Trail Mix, a Moab-based non-profit and largely volunteer organization that works closely with the BLM and other organizations to build and maintain trails. This list is by no means inclusive, in part because there are a number of illegal or non-endorsed trails intentionally not shown here. Trail that are primarily used by four-wheeled vehicles, notably the White Rim trail, are also not included.
To use, you must view the area you wish to visit before leaving a Wi-Fi or phone service area in order to cache map tiles on your device. Otherwise, no Wi-Fi or phone service in the field is required.
While Moab, near Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, is a world-premier mountain bike recreation area, Moab Bike may also be used for general-purpose map and satellite viewing for any location in the world.
A portion of the proceeds resulting from the sale of this app has been and will continue to be donated to Trail Mix.
