AR peak identification

Summit journal app
A private summit journal for the peaks you actually climb
Epicrest keeps your mountain record close to the places that created it. Log summits, attach notes to peak context, and keep your journal private instead of turning every trip into a public post.
Field context
Epicrest tools for summit journal app
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.
Record summits as a private field log
A summit entry can capture the peak, date, route context, and notes that matter to you. The journal is designed for memory and progress, not for public ranking or social pressure.
Connect each entry to mountain context
Because Epicrest also handles AR peak identification and map discovery, a log can sit beside the same peak data you used while researching or recognizing the summit.
Keep photos off the backend
Journal photos live on your device and can sync through your private iCloud if you enable it. Epicrest does not use backend photo storage for private summit journals.
