Plan the trip. Hit the trail.

APP 01

Park Finder

63 parks. Which one's yours?

Browse and filter all 63 major US national parks by state, activity, and name. Each card shows the park photo, entrance fee, and top activities. Data lives in Fireproof — no internet required after first load.

Only hiking in the Southwest? Clone it and set the default state filter to AZ, UT, NM, or CO.

APP 02

Packing List

Who's got the bear canister?

Group gear checklist organized by category — Shelter, Kitchen, Safety, Navigation, Personal. Each item shows who's bringing it and what's still unclaimed.

Going on a canoe trip instead of backpacking? Clone it and swap the gear categories to match your kit.

APP 03

Meal Planner

Day 3 dinner: somebody's problem.

Day-by-day meal grid for 2–7 days. Set each meal, note who's cooking dinner, and build a shared shopping list. No surprises at the trailhead.

Doing a 10-day trip? Clone it and extend the day count. Add dietary notes per slot.

APP 04

Trail Log

We did that. Barely.

Group hiking log for a multi-day trip. Each entry: trail name, date, distance, elevation gain, difficulty, who hiked it, notes. Trip totals at the top.

Running a hiking club with year-round logs? Clone it and remove the trip-date filter — keep every hike ever.

APP 05

Story Time

Chapter 2: the bear was right there.

Choose-your-own-adventure camping story to read aloud at the campfire. Three branching decision points, four different endings, pure CSS illustrated scenes. One ending involves a bear that is RIGHT THERE.

Want a river rafting adventure instead? Clone it and rewrite the opening scene — the branching structure is already built.

Start with one decision, then build momentum.

Open Park Finder first, pick the destination, and share the rest of the apps as your route and group details lock in.
