Our PDF maps are geo-referenced and can be opened with Adobe Reader (available here) on your computer or with software such as Avenza on your phone or tablet.

Please Note: Avenza has updated their apps and there is now a limit of three maps that you can have on your device. An alternative is to use Trail Forks, but they don’t have all of our trails and you cannot import the PDF.

With an iPhone or iPad, you can download the maps into Avenza by following the instructions here. For Android devices, please click here. For a tutorial on downloading more maps from GeoBC, using Avenza with Dropbox, and navigating within Avenza, please click here.
