Beyond the Guidebook: The Definitive Rock Climbing Resource.
• Find outdoor climbing areas near you, and navigate to them, using the map. This super-handy new feature is one of our personal faves. • The much requested route finder: Easily sort routes by discipline, difficulty, star ranking and more. If a 4-star M9 is your thing, we'll help you find it. • Search our entire database of 155,000+ climbing routes, even offline. • Download route beta, photos, and topos state by state for offline use — because the best crags often have the worst reception. • View a climbing area’s route stats (how many 5.11s are there?) and critical info (when is the raptor closure again?) in a single glance. • Chat, ask questions, or put out a call for partners in our forum. • Rate routes and photos, keep track of attempts & sends, or make a to-do list • It's free to download and free of advertising too. Everything you need, nothing you don't.

User reviews
Really great app, but the app is missing many features that the web version has, like submitting a route or commenting. I figure it'd be easier to submit a route if your out by it with your mobile rather than have to take notes and do it at your desktop, but a really great app altogether and a great community!
My gf and I are both experienced in orienteering in the outdoors. But trying to find specific routes in the Alabama Hills was very frustrating. We could see lots of bolts and routes, but not the routes we wanted to climb. The route directions and photos were not at all helpful, and the lack of GPS coordinates meant we wasted several hours tramping around on fragile desert soils...without ever finding the routes we wanted to climb (Nut N Honey, and Chiclets). Screw this...waste of time.
Great app, I'm still new to climbing, but every climb I have done has appeared. So now I can track what I've accomplished and what I want to accomplish (all in the app), plus find new routes easily. You can tick off climbs multiple times, which is cool, so if I ever lead rather than top rope, I can tick off that climb as a lead.
