Not a helpful app at all. I can get the exact same information from Google and pull up the exact same maps through my phone's standard map app. Doesn't cover trails or any pertinent information. Also requires you to download for each forest just to give you the same world map. The only thing this app really does is show you the location of ranger stations without having to search for them. Don't waste your time.

developed by the forest unit’s rangers and interpretive staff and features a variety of content, including educational audio tours and natural and historic imagery.
