Hi Bill,
Forgive me if this was somewhere I missed. I recall there used to be an option where you could save a route description down with photos and view offline on your phone. How can you do you that again? I have an Android/Samsung if that matters.

Navigate to your route. Scroll to the bottom below the pics. The option is there.
Route desc are always avail offline. But if you want pics you gotta download those.

Re: Off line usage in Android app
Ah yes, thank you. I was actually on the website via a shortcut not via the app. Is there a way to cleanly save routes for 13ers from the website?

Re: Off line usage in Android app
Not clean, but here are a couple of methods:
Keep the "print" version of a route open in a browser tab on your phone:
1) Open the route description and rotate the phone to landscape to see the Print icon on the upper right. The icon doesn't show up when you're holding your phone in portrait orientation.
2) Click it to open a "print" version of the route, with photos all shown at the bottom of the page.
3) Keep that tab open in your mobile browser.
Saving a PDF
1) On a pc/laptop, go to the route description.
2) Click the Print icon on the upper right of the route. This will open a "print" version of the route, with small photos all shown at the bottom of the page.
3) In Windows, print the page to a .PDF document.
4) Somehow send the pdf to your phone.
That's all I have for now. Someday, I'd like to get the 13er routes in the mobile app...
