In advance of your next hiking trip consider placing some waypoints on your onX maps app. Having these waypoints can enhance your experience by making sure you don’t miss any significant features on or off your next hiking trail.
Waypoints can be added to any phone map, off-road map, or trail map that you like to use. I use the onX maps myself. I find that I can place waypoints while in the field to keep track of where I see animal signs for my hunts.
I have also used the mapping program to find myself. I once hiked in the remote Superstition Mountain Wilderness, and I had no signal with my cell service. However, when I started my hike I used the Tracker function on my onX app. This tracked my hiking and when I needed to turn around and get back to my truck, I just followed the tracker back to my starting point.
Keep your waypoints marked correctly. On the onX map program, you can change the waypoint’s name. Mark special locations on the trail ahead of your next trip, and take the time to enhance your experience by adding waypoints to your onX maps app. By marking these significant locations, you can ensure that you don’t miss out on any important features along your trail, whether they’re on or off the path.
So keep track of your adventure by placing some waypoints on a map!
