TrailCheck
Health & Fitness
About this app
• Parking: Is the trailhead deserted, or overflowing? When do you need to arrive to be sure you have a spot? How does the usage change on weekends and holidays?
• Weather: What's it like right now? How is that likely to change throughout the day? How much colder or windier will it be at higher elevations?
• Trail: Should you pack gaiters or microspikes? Will you need to deal with downed trees or overgrowth? Is a washout blocking the route?
TrailCheck lets you select a trailhead, or a specific location on a trail, to view current conditions. Or use the time filters to show averages for recent days or similar days to help predict what you'll run into.
Contributing to TrailCheck's database is easy. Click to submit a parking, weather or trail update and optionally select a location on the trail. Move a few sliders to show the conditions, and add comments if you want to share more details. You can enter updates from the trail, back at the trailhead or from home later. Every submission makes the app work better!
*** Note: TrailCheck is currently in an introductory period and is free to use. Eventually it might require some form of payment. We will notify users before introducing any pricing changes. ***

Ratings and Reviews
Pretty sure this is an abandoned app. Can't register, can't use anything in the app.
Uninstalled instantly. Does not work.
Nothing in this app works at all anymore. This is so unfortunate. When I first installed, it was great! After installing now, everything is blank.
I love the idea of this app, but it's imposing to get past the log in screen. It just doesn't work, at all.
Unable to create an account. Entered all necessary information but it doesn't work. No identifiable issues of what went wrong.
I am giving this app 4 stars because i think it's a great idea. And i will be following it's progress. My complaint/critique is this app doesn't give a tutorial, there is no real depth or reports to do with weather or human foot traffic. This could be very well developed if it were even more user friendly similar to the Waze model. But definitely long overdue for someone to make this happen.
