Hey everyone, I was just wondering if anyone had had the chance to try out these two apps. Which do you prefer? What are the pros and cons of each?

I haven't used Natural Atlas, but AllTrails is fine. It helps to discover good hikes, but its mapping of the trail can be bad at times. I've been on a few hikes where AllTrails wanted me to go off the marked trail or straight through lakes. Despite that, it isn't that bad if you trust the trail signage and the trail conditions over what AllTrails says.
