Peaks gets totally panned on reviews at the appstore. How could Backpacker recommend it?

To everyone that thinks apps do not belong in the wild. Did you drive to the forrest or did you walk while wearing homemade mocasins? Did you eat out or go to the supermarket instead of killing your dinner by hand ?

Wow, big surprise that no free apps were included in this list. The longer I read this magazine, the more I realize that its basically an advertisement medium for products. Aren't the owned by cosmo now?

I've been backpacking for 125 years and god d@amnit, I go to the forest to get away from electronics and gadgets and smartbeepers. And electricity. And those damn kids! You know, the kids that think they're all smart and all when you try to order something over the phone and they ask if you have the internet. Of course I don't have the internet, it requires electricity!
Anyways, you should always use a paper map and compass, not a phone or electronic device. The fact that your phone can hold a map / topo, compass, sunrise / sunset data, star data, First Aid info, survival guides, camera, notes, GPS, phone for emergencies, etc. is besides the point. If it requires electricity, it's bad! You can't use electricity in the forest because then you're not truly "getting away"! I go to the forest because I enjoy being an over-critical ass in the confines of nature, so get over yourself!

I'd like to recommend GPSies+ (free) with over 850.000 GPS tracks on the maps of OpenStreetMap. Good for cycling, running, trekking and so on.

Maybe utilizing the "Turn Your Electronics Off" app and actually enjoy your surroundings. I do think the Planet app is cool but, it stays in the car.

You missed a truly useful app - 'MDeclination' which is also fun to guess what the declination is in different places around the world. Except Greenland, which they completely ignore - weird.

If you want a good parks map base, my favorite is the "fly to maps" app. You do have to pay for it but it has been an awesome aid on all my NP adventures. This one should have made the list. Perhaps you should run an article on the top ten apps submitted by readers.

my favorite app for my iPhone is GaiaGPS. it does suck down the battery. But, it's fine for a day hike. It uploads to everytrail.com so that you can see and share your trip. If you'd like to see an example, you can check out the link to our last family hike ( http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=833820 ). I bought it because I wanted topo maps and a real altimeter. Yep, it drains the battery. But it's pretty nice. Just a suggestion.

OMG!!!!!!!! I've been backpacking for 25 years and did not know what I was missing!!!!! Puh-lease. I thought the point of "getting out" was to get away from all the distractions. Get a topo map and a compass and get over yourself.

GPS apps do kill the iPhone pretty quickly. I've been using Brunton's Solo 3.4, which can get a full day from an iPhone. Just make sure you have a later gen phone, as I have experienced charging issues with original iPhones and 2nd generation Touches.
