This week I have been working on a major update to the iPhone and Andriod north wales rock guidebook app. With a growing market of users having greater storage and screen resolution. We have decided to update nearly all the topos at a greater resolution, nearly double to be precise. This has meant that I have also gone through the database one more time and tried to fiull in areas that were not yet covered.
These new areas and additional routes include:
Upper Tier Tremadog – 7 routes, 1 topo
Pant If an Tremadog – 11 routes, 2 topos.
The Gravestones, Llnaberis Pass – 6 routes, 1 topo.
Scimitar Ridge, Llanberis Pass- 4 routes, 1 topo.
Craig Dorys – 6 routes, 3 topos.
Idwal Slabs – 2 new topos.
North Stack Wall, Goagrth – 7 routes, 1 topi.
Castell Helen – 2 routes added.
Easter Island Gully – 3 routes added.
This should get us well on the way to over 700 routes covered in the app along with hires colour topos for almost all the venues. There are a few remaining topos that will need updating at some point but they have tended to be of single pitch venues where the resolution was more than adequate for the purpose of the guide.
You can find out more about the North Wales Rock App at theSend. They also have a North Wales Limestone App in the pipeline as well as some other areas. There are links on the right side bar to both the Apple App store and the Google Play where you can purchase these great apps for £5.99.
I have also been putting the finnishing touches to a Effective Coaching: The Coaching Process for Climbing Instructors, which is due out next month on iPad and Kindle.
