Hello everyone, i need suggestion on a 3 day hike, preferably loop and close enough from Phx but not intrested in desert landscape, I want to get into thru hiking and this would be my little crash course, i will be hiking solo and this will be my crash course. Thanks.

Thanks guys, is "routescout" the same as the option to just download the route into my phone and use navigation?, if not how is it different.

Did you click on the link in Joe's reply? It explains Route Scout.

Not sure how you download a route into your phone and use navigation, but this is one way to do it. You may be using another app that does something similar.

I went to the map section, found Derrik/Horton Loop trail and could not find the print option anywhere, do you need a premium acct to print?

"What you talkin' bout Willis?" You have a premium account. Everyone that registers has a premium account. There is only one account and it is a premium account. Everyone that has registered is equal in the eyes of HAZ.

Download
Download is for gps devices such as Garmin eTrex, Oregon, etc.
You download the file on a desktop. Plug in your device via USB then drag the file to the device.

Phone App
"Route Scout - GPS Topo Mapper" is an app you download from Apple Store or Google Play. Transfer is wireless.
There is a video in the first post of >>> this thread <<< that explains importing.

If you try and "download" a gpx file on an iPhone or iPad you only get the contents of the file on your screen. Hence "Route Scout" above.
