Review summary

Powder Project is valued for its simplicity and usefulness in finding backcountry ski trails, with regular updates adding more tracks. Users appreciate the app for navigation and discovering new ski lines. However, the app suffers from limited geographic coverage, particularly in regions like the Wasatch, Pacific Northwest, and Alps. Multiple users request the addition of slope angle overlays to better assess avalanche terrain. Some experience technical issues such as area downloads failing and app crashes, impacting usability.

Pros

Great app for discovering backcountry ski lines and new trails.
Simple and easy to use with basic, understandable tools.
Regularly updated with more tracks and improving over time.
Helpful for navigation and finding ski locations in various areas.

Cons

Limited coverage and route selection, especially in some regions like the Wasatch range, Pacific Northwest, and Alps.
Lack of slope angle or avalanche terrain overlay makes it less useful for safety planning.
App functionality issues such as inability to download areas and occasional failures to work.

2022-06-17	Tr*****	Every few months I come back to check this young app and each time it get better with more tracks. Very basic easy to understand the tools on app and each season that comes by this app will be one of the best Backcountry ski line apps.

2022-06-01	Ma*****	Powder projects would be useful if it had the degrees of slope overlay to let users know if terrain was over 30 degrees slope. The grade of the path on the profile is shown in percent on the app. Avalanche data is typically shown in degrees. Could show both degrees and (percent). But what is more important is the degree of the slope of the terrain that is around your planned tour/ lines. It would be great if you could see the slope data of the terrain, draw in a planned accent in safe terrain.
