Then download the Viewranger app to your phone and sync content - choose which route you want and you'll be able to see where you are in relation to the route and make 100% you're going in the right direction and never get lost!
That sounds like a super app, Lindloo. I am ever looking for new places to run and hike.
When we had our most severe lockdown, the state closed all the beaches, sportsplex and parks - except for one. Despite the protests and warnings from those of us who are out every day, the government ignored the advice - and literally thousands congregated along the same trail system.
Being spread out and outdoors (away from the snacks in the pantry) are still the best places one can be, and telling people how much time they can be out there is ridiculous.
When government overreaches, everyone ignores everything - from this most ardent rule follower.
