The Greater Bragg Creek Trails Association has a map app for both Apple and Android covering the Bragg Creek area trail system. Produced by Trailforks, a trail database website owned by Pinkbike the app includes a map and trail descriptions as well as background information on riding the area. It is primarily aimed at mountain bikers and is positioned by the GBCTA as a fundraiser, with in-app donations and trail volunteer information.
Unfortunately it is, in my opinion, way overpriced at $14.99. This review is somewhat limited because I can’t justify buying the app. I have the excellent paper map for only a buck more, and when I am out in the area I can refer to the extensive signage at every junction. The only reason I can see to purchase the app is to support the GBCTA, or if I were a visitor who wanted to know my current location and it’t GPS coordinates. Here are the links to Apple, and to Google play for the Android version.

I stand corrected. One of the links I followed took me to Trailforks. The point I was trying to make is that the app really not needed for West Bragg where the signage is so good and so much information is available. It may be nice to have, but as such is way overpriced.
Hi Tony,
Not much of a review if you didn’t purchase it.
You might want to do a little more research before you do a half review on a product. This app is produced by trailmapps.com and has no affiliation with Trailforks or Pinkbike.
It will be interesting to see what Trailforks app will look like when it is realeased.
