Please reach out to our customer service team - they should be able to help you www.onxmaps.com/contact
Does the app has guidance while on trail in case you get lost?

Good luck 🤞

This is great backcountry app. I underestimated it at first, I thought it was confusing and clunky until I was actually out in the field with it and then it all came together. It's lifesaving good.
I didn't think much of this app until I used it in the field, then it all came together and I was blown away. It's life saving good. Absolutley awesome backcountry/hiking app.
This is a good advanced masterclass. Is there an orientation masterclass. How can I save a gpx file for a route/track that is previously on the map? I need to use gpx file for my smartwatch. Also, I can not find where on the app to export. No option.
Nice video. It would be nice if there were a basic intro instruction video. I can't save an existing route to gpx file for my smartwatch.
Should've added tracking back from the app
@onXBackcountry @codytownsend Thanks for the tour! You mention integration and exporting. If I upload and contribute routes can a friend who prefers to use the Gaia or Caltopo apps Export my route (GPX or KML) and use it in another app or is it a one way street into OnX? It's a cool platform for sharing spatial data and I love the extra layers you're pulling in but I don't want my contributions to be locked into OnX. As a contributor perhaps you'll let me set the Sharing settings to Creative Commons for example.
You guys are not really focus on the Canadian area don't you?
Can you export the route in gpx file to a gps watch
Im here to learn how to use the app. This is a phenomenal app that overlays property lines while showing your location. It appears simple so I’m moving on, too much talk about everything except how to use the app.
I’m always glad to hear your safety tips.
It’s really helpful to hear Cody’s thought process when planning the tour.
Does this show what campsites and shelters thar are on your trail?
Sadly, this vid is highly out of date and tough to follow.
FWIW if the team at OnX reads this.... I am struggling to drop a waypoint (or any marker for that matter) at the highest point of my route based on the elevation chart.
Our support team would love to dive into this with you and see if we can figure out whats going on here. Shoot us an email at [email protected]

The internet was a little slow last night - so apologies for the lag in the recording which can make it a bit hard to see what I'm trying to show in the webinar. Thanks again to Josh for joining us last night and for Rocky Talkie for contributing radios to the giveaway. Hope to catch you on the next masterclass -Matt
Is there a way to see all recent ski reports in a region?
At the current time all ski reports are categorized on the 'line' level vs the 'region' level. you have to click into individual routes to see the ski reports for those lines. It would be beneficial to have a zone/region level ski report as well - i'll forward that feedback to our product team -Matt
@@onXBackcountry thanks for the reply. What Im thinking of is a list of all ski reports (by line vs zone/region level reports) in a region. So the reports are still organized and attached to the line but there's a way to peruse all reports in a region too, and/or see recent/new ones. Maybe the lines as they are listed under a region have an indicator of new/unread reports.
I’m not finding any way to reduce slope angle opacity on the phone app.
Hey Blake - Right now you can only adjust the slope angle opacity on the desktop version of our app.
@@onXBackcountry the guy in the video said you can. Nice going
Thank you, Matt and Mike. I missed the live webinar but finished watching the recorded session. Great info and please continue with these regularly. Cheers!
Thanks for tuning in! We'll keep them coming. Hope to see you on the next live masterclass -Matt
A lot of people don’t know is that doing this is extremely personal to him because in he almost lost his wife in the 2012 Tunnel Creek avalanche
Well done! As an avalanche instructor for an Avy 2 class this season, I've assigned this video to our class to review
Information on the climbing feature. And less ums
What about the climbing feature?
Awesome tutorial! I may have missed it, but when I download an offline map of a trail I drew, the elevation/distance profile becomes unavailable. Is there a way to keep that graph for offline use?
I'm looking for a good introduction to the app. This seems to assume a working knowledge of it already. I'm new; I don't have that. Can you direct me?
Would using onyx off-road be better because it has a GPS?
Would onyx off-road be better because I can use GPS?
The advice to have a solid idea of how fast you can ascend while skinning and booting was a really useful tip for me. Definitely something I'm gonna keep in mind while training for the spring

I’m 55 so I just want to point out I’ve maps full of the trips I’ve taken on my shelf. I document the trip on my maps and I have maps that are for firewood, biking, packing. Some maps are covered in my memory’s, some are a single trip. I feel comfortable with maps and can accurately navigate. Planning is where I enjoy this technology. The overview available allows me to feel familiar in new terrain in new surroundings.
This is a great Christmas gift. Merry Christmas to you , Cody and your families.

I've been using this for over a year now but have never read any instructions. I've just been winging it, mostly using it to create a map of my movement so I can find my way around, either going forward or finding my way back (I wander off trail a fair bit). But I felt like learning about it more and found your video on KZread. Really well done! You stuck to the basics and I got a lot out of it! I will always be amazed at how they can come up with stuff like this and appreciate your clear explanation about how it works! Thanks!
Thanks! If you want to go deeper, we host monthly masterclasses where we go in depth on how to plan specific objectives. Join one of our live webinars sometime! kzread.info/dash/bejne/YmyVzbubhtjgd7A.html
This app has improved a lot since the first release. I have made the switch and I’ll be using it as my primary mapping software for my hiking and MT biking. Can’t wait to see the Onx Fish, avid fisherman from Minnesota I love the hunt app can’t wait to see what you guys do with the fishing app. If you need any beta testers, let me know ice fishing season is coming quick here.

Enter the Ski With Cody Giveaway 👉 www.onxmaps.com/backcountry/ski-with-cody
This may be the best prize ever.
Wow that’s insane!! What a wonderful prize. I hope a great person wins it. Some talented kid who is low on cash but filled with potential.
We hope so too! one lucky winner and THREE of their friends will get to join the tour, stay 3 nights at Gravity Haus Truckee-Tahoe, and they ALL get skis from Salomon, Mammut Beacons + Probes + Shovels, and Rocky Talkie Radios. This is the trip of a lifetime! 🙌
how do you start the hike on the app ? in all trails i can press start and i follow the trail. is that a feature
on the bottom right of your app you can turn on 'tracker' which will track your hike and show you your milage and time. If you have tracker turned on and you click on the hiking trail, you can see your progress on the trail card on the elevation profile. I hope this helps!
Gonna miss these dudes talking about skiing, let alone the actual lines themselves.
