Find the ground worth checking
Auditable elk-use rankings combine road refuge, canopy, terrain, mapped seasonal use, access pressure, and cover edge.
Terrain-first hunt planning
Hunt the ridgelines. Not the noise.
Turn elk-use evidence, terrain, access, water, and wind into a route you can actually execute when daylight and options run thin.

From a mountain of map data to one clear move.
Ridgeline keeps the evidence visible, then gets out of the way while you build the route.
Turn points into a field route
Build an ordered plan with camps, glassing points, water, bivies, rests, marks, and complete ridge-running fan-outs.
Approach from the right side
Compare forecast or prevailing wind against every route leg, with terrain, time, climb, water, and ownership warnings.
Carry the plan off-screen
Export interoperable route files or compose a field-ready paper map in color, black and white, or ink-saving outline mode.
The Ridgeline advantage
Fan out from anywhere. Keep only the line that earns its place.
Start from any waypoint and generate multiple ridge-biased approaches. Favor water when it matters, inspect the wind, hover to compare, and keep a complete segment inside your ordered route.
- Ridge and terrain preference, not straight-line fantasy
- Elevation, hiking time, water, and private-land consequences
- Waypoint and full-segment planning in one vertical route
Made for the field
The plan survives weak signal, app switching, and paper.
Planning-first data stages show exactly what is usable and what is still arriving.
GPX, KML, GeoJSON, CSV, and lossless Ridgeline backup files.
Compose common paper sizes without sacrificing routes, marks, scale, or legend.
Build one worth editing.
Keep the route, wind, water, access, and evidence in the same place.
