This app is your personal “Tour Guide” as you navigate the highways of Alaska and Western Canada. The app starts by showing a list of trips (routes) that you can load onto your iPhone. Once loaded, just tap on the map icon and let the app be your personal “Tour Guide” along the route. The interactive map shows each attraction listed in The Milepost just before you drive by them.

NOTE: This app is different than the free digital edition that comes with the purchase of the Milepost Book.

Features include:

• Audio feature that reads out each point while driving.

• Interactive tour guide, showing attractions as you drive past them;

• Tour Guide works even when out of cell range;

• Travelers can choose which trips they want to load;

• Look ahead on the journey to see what is coming up;

• Post your own reports to The Milepost from the road;

• Searchable content to find what your looking for along each trip; and

• Complete Milepost content and advertisements included on the app.

“My absolute favorite feature is that it continues to produce information even where there is no cell service.” Claire Torgerson, Senior Editor of The Milepost.

“I mount it on my dash, start the app and keep it running the whole trip so it can tell me what I’m about to see. A great education about the journey.” Sean Simmons, past Advertising Representative for The Milepost.
