Is there a more free version of Alltrails? I find Alltrails to be too paywalled when I don't even think they deserve my money. What exactly do they even do? The community creates everything and it's not like they're contributing to the Maps community or anything.

Caltopo

I still look at Alltrails sometimes to look for trails and routes. You can download a GPX track with a free account, then upload it to whatever app you want.

Caltopo is amazing. The app sucks. The web app is the best tool for the job though.

Tbh I use caltopo on my computer to make maps and Garmin Explore on my phone because I have an Inreach

Yeah that's the move. Caltopo is easily the most useful tool on the internet for hiking. I just wish the android app was full featured.
