Summit & Back Again

Summit & Back Again is a hiking and peak-bagging companion built for Southern California's mountains — and for hikers who want to own their adventures, not rent them. No account. No cloud. No ads. Everything lives on your phone. CHASE THE PEAKS Track all 29 of Southern California's 10,000-foot summits and the SoCal Six-Pack of Peaks challenge. Summits are detected automatically when you reach the top — no button to press, no signal required. RECORD EVERY HIKE Start a recording, lock your phone, and hike. GPS tracking captures your route, distance, and accurate elevation gain and loss, even deep in the backcountry with no cell service. BRING YOUR HISTORY WITH YOU Switching from AllTrails or Strava?
