  • Use it to plan all my mountain trips

    lil_rhy

    The app is intuitive and easy to use. All the info I need to plan my hiking and backpacking trips. The cloud base data is especially helpful. I’ve found the forecasts to be pretty reliable, especially within a few days out.

    Thanks for the review lil_rhy. Delighted to hear the forecasts help you get out there and enjoy the mountains. Cheers

  • Low temps are gone

    Us43744

    I paid for the subscription and then my app updated a few weeks later. Now the minimum temperature for each day is missing. This is so annoying. About all I care about is the minimum temp. Bring it back!

    Hi Us43744,Apologies for that. If you update to the latest version, the minimum temperatures show.Thanks

  • Best Mountain Weather App Ever

    San Jacinto Peak

    I struggled to find a good weather app to help forecast my local mountains, and this is literally the most accurate tool ever. Premium subscription is definitely worth it!

  • Won’t let me change password

    Carny1403

    I got a new phone so I had to sign in for the 1st time in a long time and couldn’t find a screenshot of my password. I followed the prescribed “forgot password” procedure but then it refused the new password. Why do you even bother with a “forgot password” function if you’re not even going to follow your own directions! Your rules apply to you as well! Your program is straight rubbish!

    Developer Response

    Sorry you've had problems with your password. If not already resolved, please ensure you're updated to the latest version 3.0 of the app.

  • Get accurate forecasts for hiking/hunting

    DCAT1

    Don’t rely on your local forecast for what is happening in the mountains. This app will help you plan much better trips.

  • Elk Hunting

    JCFOhio

    Mountain-Forecast is an excellent source of detailed current and future mountain weather. This level of information is crucial when planning for and hunting elk in high elevation mountains.

  • UPDATED 5/25 - Free App Only Gives Details Of Current Day, So FAR Less Useful than Bedore

    Hoodoo 52

    Update—Since they changed the basic (free) version, I don’t use it much anymore. Future days are forecast-limited to morning/afternoon/night, so basically useless. And I’m not paying $25/year for something I can pretty much get for free (NOAA, AccuWeather, Weather underground and many, many more).I think all previous reviews should be wiped clean when there’s this much of a change in the app. Otherwise, they’re false.Previous review:As my title says, FREE. For now anyway. God help me if they start charging for the basic version. I’d have to go back to NOAA, which is pessimistic and doesn’t do spot forecasts. Mountain Forecast lacks the ability to find ridges or other relatively minor places you might want to hike, but there’s that magic word FREE. And, combined with ACCURATE, it’s pretty much unbeatable. I live close to Rocky Mountain Nat’l Park. I discovered the mountain-forecast site after asking a ranger what they used. I find the app to be significantly more accurate than NOAA, especially because it gives you data on at least two elevations. That’s huge for someone like me who seeks elevation and hates hiking up in the heat. Going down, warm is okay. Also, the app is more accurate on hike day (or morning, as I often do short morning hikes in the foothills). I can see hour-by-hour how it’s going to be, and can get out and enjoy some sun (and often low wind) when I see it’ll cloud up and blow/snow/rain in the afternoon.So, in short, I’m very grateful to the folks behind the app for allowing me easy forecasting accuracy for free. Thank you, mountain forecast.
