Your emergency details, now kept only as long as you need them
The Emergency tab now says plainly who sees what you put there, and the details are deleted two weeks after the hike ends, timed so it never cuts across a check-in alert.
Draw a route, and let the trail do the rest
Draw routes right in Pack Hiker: click your way along the map and each leg follows the trail. Add waypoints, import files from other apps, keep them in your own library, and add a copy to any of your hikes.
Share a hike plan, without sharing your hike
A public link to a read-only copy of your hike — the route, the days, the water — with no dates, no members and nothing personal, and a review step before any of it goes live.
Why I built Pack Hiker
Why Pack Hiker exists: one place to organise a group hike, a privacy model where even the site admin can't see your plans, and notes on where the site runs today.
