Hiker Trash

Track your hike, keep daily trail logs, follow friends, and stay connected with your tramily while managing battery use on trail.

Hiker Trash: Tactical Thru-Hiking Logbook & Tramily Tracker

Built on trail for long-distance hikers, Hiker Trash is a hiking logbook, hiker profile, and tramily tracker for the AT, PCT, CDT, and beyond.

TRAIL LOGBOOKS & HIKER RESUMES

Record daily trail logs, mileage, notes, photos, and hike progress even when you are offline, out of service, or using airplane mode in your tent after a long day. Your entries can be saved on your phone and synced to the cloud when you have signal again, helping protect your hiking history if your phone is later lost, damaged, or replaced. Build a long-term hiking resume across completed, active, and planned hikes, including total trail miles and major trail milestones.

SMART LOCATION SHARING

Hiker Trash is designed for hikers who care about battery life. Location sharing is controlled by the user and updates only while the app is active, helping hikers stay connected without relying on constant background tracking.

TRAMILY DASHBOARD

Keep up with the hikers who matter most. Follow friends, view recent shared locations when enabled, and stay connected with your designated tramily while on trail.

PRIVACY CONTROLS

You control how your location is shared. Choose whether your recent location is visible more broadly or limited to trusted tramily members. Hiker Trash is built around hiker-controlled privacy, not automatic public tracking.

PUBLIC PROFILE & FAMILY SHARING

Share your hiking progress with friends, family, and followers through web-based profile and tracking views. Public pages respect your privacy settings, while private share links can help trusted people follow your recent progress when you choose to share them.

BUILT FOR THE TRAIL

Hiker Trash helps long-distance hikers keep better records, find friends, follow their tramily, and tell the story of a hike without turning the phone into a full-time battery drain.

See you up trail!
