Lodges/restaurant/Ticket office/Parking/Skier drop off areas/lift types/runs are marked in the dowloaded maps. If your device has a GPS or you use a bluetooth GPS puck, you can locate yourself on the mountain at any time.

Record GPS tracks
If your device has GPS or you use a bluetooth GPS puck paired with your device, you can record your GPS tracks for ski analytics or just to see the mountain terrain that you have covered when you take a break.

View tracks overlay
If you turn on track recording, at any point you can view the resort map with your tracks overlaid on the maps in dark brown color. This would help you figure out with a glance which portion of the mountain you have covered and the trails you haven't touched at all.

Live track animation
If you turn on track recording, you can play your track at any time. The track play shows you a red dot traversing the mountain. The speed of the red dot is proportional to how fast you ski. The red dot goes faster at places where you ski faster. You can see your speed at the bottom left corner of the phone screen.

If you turn on track recording, you can look at detailed ski analytics for your tracks. Detailed track analytics include:

- For each run, in the order you did it, you can see the name of the trails covered. For each run, you can ski the distance skied, your average speed, your maximum speed and the time taken to do that run.
- If you ski through multiple trails during a run, you can view the name of each trail you skied through. For each trail, you can ski the distance skied, your average speed, your maximum speed and the time taken to do that trails.
