Field context

Epicrest tools for mountains near banff

AR peak identification

Use the iPhone camera view to understand the peaks in front of you when location and sensor context are available.

Map-based discovery

Browse nearby summits, elevation, prominence, weather, and route context from the map before you commit to a plan.

Offline peak packs

Download regional peak data before a trip so useful context remains available when service is limited.

Private summit journal

Keep summit notes on device, with optional private iCloud sync. Epicrest does not use server-side photo storage for journals.

Bring order to Bow Valley views

Use AR identification for clear sightlines around town, lakes, and overlooks. Then use map discovery to inspect neighboring summits and understand how the visible skyline fits into the wider Canadian Rockies.

Use context with park rules in mind

Epicrest can surface peak, weather, and route context where available. Access, wildlife restrictions, closures, and seasonal hazards should always be verified with Parks Canada and local sources.

Save a private Rockies summit record

When a viewpoint, scramble, or summit becomes part of the trip, log it privately. Epicrest keeps the record attached to mountain context without pushing it into a public feed.
