#147 - I Used onX Backcountry for 2 Years — Here’s What Shocked Me
from The Peanut Butter and Mountains Podcast · host Chad Lubinski
Today I provide an in-depth two-year review of the onX Backcountry app, discussing its pros, cons, and overall utility for outdoor enthusiasts. I'll compare it to other popular apps like Gaia, highlighting its superior features such as trail overlays, user-friendly interface, and integrated modes for hiking, skiing, mountain biking, and climbing. In my experience, this has been the most reliable and versatile navigation app for backpacking, hiking, trail running, ski touring, mountain biking, and climbing. The app's premium and elite versions are evaluated, along with their added features like wildfire layers, recent imagery, and public/private land boundaries. -- Try onX Backcountry for $1!--https://alnk.to/8tQz3wqMY LINKS: -- Socials --Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chadahooche_/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chadahooche_00:00 Introduction to onX Backcountry00:15 Switching from Gaia to onX Backcountry01:26 Key Features and Benefits of onX Backcountry02:50 Advanced Layers and Modes04:45 Ski Touring and Safety Features07:55 Cons and Areas for Improvement08:53 Subscription Tiers and Recommendations
