@onXBackcountry came online some months ago, and is the latest branch of the onX tree. Originally founded by avid hunter and outdoorsman Eric Siegfried in 2009, onX was designed to help adventurers and explorers the ability to navigate the wild with knowledge and awareness of the land they were on. Since then, onX has expanded with conservation and Access teams to help protect wilderness, onX Off Road and now, onX Backcountry. While there are plenty of ways to track rides, onX Backcountry adds appreciated functionality to the GPS App game.
Their industry-leading GPS technology has already helped millions of users navigate their way, and now mountain bikers can do anything from seeing recent satellite imagery; to accessing smoke and air quality conditions; planning routes digitally; viewing photos and trail reports, and so much more. We’ve been using the onX Backcountry app to save us time before driving to some of our favorite shuttle locations, as we’re able to check their satellite imagery for snow on the peaks before loading up the trucks. Similarly, we’ve been using it for a ton as we research new places to ride for our eMTB Destination Tour.
Being able to create our own routes and use their “Snap To” feature to understand just how many miles, vert and what sort of grade to expect; helps us figure out battery range, stamina concerns and how many snacks to pack. So, with just a few of our favorite features introduced, let’s take a deeper look at onX Backcountry.

What are the 3 main benefits of OnX over TrailForks? TF has been very useful and reliable as I explore trails all over the Rockies, Southwest and even other countries.
We’ll give you the two we enjoy most - more up to date / refreshed satellite imagery so we don’t drive several hours to a spot that still has snow.
And the other is no heat maps or sharing of information for trails on private land or secret stashes.
I'm using Gaia GPS for hiking / snowboarding / jeeping / mountain biking and it works well too. I like the combination of Gaia, Trail Forks and Strava. I would give OnX a shot but their "three different apps" approach just doesn't do it for me. If they would just combine the (backcountry, off road, hunting) maps into one product for one price I'd buy it and give it a shot.
Interesting feedback thanks for sharing.
Honestly I don’t need a 6th, 7th or 8th app! So not interested.

All of these new comers need to partner like Bosch did with a Komoot
Love you guys though for your reviews
Thanks for watching and sharing! And we’re glad you enjoy the reviews. Plenty more coming!
Not available in UK 😞 looks awesome. Love to help bring it to our little isle 👍
We’ll ask them about that.
Is this a sponsored promo? OnX keeps trying to market their stuff to 4wd owners and UTV/ATV users all the time.
Looks like an ad, sounds like an ad.....
@@sparks6666 I know but content creators are required by law to say upfront if a product they're reviewing is a sponsored ad, so maybe I just missed it if he did.
@@wvjeepguy8178 he mentioned "we partnered". sounds like their way of complying.
