That is all
Harriman Maps are Great!

I love the map feature for Harriman. I’ve used it for 100s of miles of hiking and love it way more than all the other map providers (AllTrails, CalTopo, Komoot etc.) Highly recommend downloading it just for that. Please please please make maps for the Adirondacks!

I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice and every time, I swipe through the tour and then the app just spins with a “Fetching Latest Data” pop-up and nothing happens. I have no access to the app. Thank goodness I screenshot my pass. Very frustrating.
