App Description
Arkansas Hiker is a detailed, map-based smartphone guide to Arkansas' best trails. The app currently includes the Ouachita National Recreation Trail and the Pinnacle Mountain State Park trail system. Other trails and trail systems will be added over time.
After the initial setup the app is fully functional without an internet connection: NO MOBILE OR INTERNET CONNECTION REQUIRED because the app uses your device's GPS and offline topo maps.

An elevation profile shows path distance vs elevation and plots your current location. Each waypoint is plotted on the profile. Each waypoints is clickable, opening to the waypoint's detail page.
