Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
Of course I do. I have a 256GB iPhone and the same in the iPad. Storage is wide open. Gaia sucks because it often doesn't work properly when offline. Search often didn't work for me, routing often didn't work properly. On my last trip, On-X didn't even show city or roadnames when offline. That's...
I run Gaia on an 8" tablet for mapping. Downloading entire states is extremely easy, as is downloading routes and POIs. It has worked very well for the almost 10 years I've been using it. I also carry a Garmin 7" GPS and have OB1 on my phone for backup and additional information. For creating...
Are you dead-set on that rig? My truck with FWC weighs around 10k lbs and I'm already always the heaviest rig in my group/that I see out on the trail. At 25k lbs I imagine we're talking about a large ex-military rig? It looks like you're in the Rockies, are you sure something that heavy is...
Re Gaia and OnX – they might be okay for regional trails but both utterly suck for actual traveling. You want something that can download large maps, e.g. full states, have full functionality offline and actually work. OnX I gave up on due to the stamp sized offline maps and when I started...
...year, but I've been there in early october, and it was DUMPING snow up on the mountain. We're talking whiteout conditions.
According to the Gaia Snow depth layer, you're looking at between 60 and 100 inches of snow pack at the top of steens mountain loop.
Do with that information what you...
...and you want to do a trip but not sure where to go I can jump on a Zoom call and help with planning ideas and we can collaborate in a shared Gaia folder.
An immediate next trip to do would be Red's Canyon. You can camp where we did last time, do the Red's Canyon loop / an offshoot near it...
Gaia. Looked all the others, decided I liked the choice of maps and sometimes having multiple maps of the same area. Reason: All maps contain errors; either errors made at it's creation or errors that have "aged in" due to changes on the ground since the map was made). A lot of times I'm on a...
I have tried to use GAIA becore and just could get into it. I have used google maps and the OB1 map for a while but purchased the garmin overlander about 5 months ago. I like being able to not use the phone as navigation. Its pretty easy to use, the basecamp app is not the best but manageable...
...Maps in my rig. To that end I can't speak on any of the apps you mentioned with experience, other than I've heard good reviews from both onX and GAIA users. Google Maps a great way to self-teach route planning and changes on the fly, I spend hours on my computer looking for stuff to jump out...
...where we are converting an Isuzu/GMC cabover. It weighs about 25,000 pounds and was wondering where to start for recovery gear.
Secondly, GAIA vs onX vs Garmin overlander for a beginner to get offline maps? This truck in addition to the weight will be right around 13 feet tall. I saw that...
I personally use Gaia in conjunction with OB1 as it has benefits of native support for Trailforks (also owned by Outside) and has a decent Android Auto/Carplay app
