About this app

Avy is your gateway to reliable avalanche and weather information, providing access to the Northwest Avalanche Center (NWAC) and Sawtooth Avalanche Center (SAC). But that's just the beginning. Stay tuned for an ever-expanding network of avalanche centers with future updates.

View streamlined, up-to-date avalanche and weather forecasts for your selected zone, use offline caching, and submit observations on the go. All the info and functionality you want at your fingertips.

Key functionalities:

- Streamlined Trip Planning: With a simple tap, you can access the avalanche forecast, weather forecast, weather stations, and zone-specific observations. To minimize scrolling, forecast components are collapsible, and navigating between zones is easy.
- Offline Caching: Nature doesn't always provide a strong signal, so Avy has integrated offline caching. Even when you're off the grid, you have access to forecasts, weather data and observations you previously viewed.
- Observation Submission: Submitting your own observations to contribute to the community has never been easier. Offline caching allows you to submit your observation without connectivity and it’ll automatically upload when you get back to service.
- Weather Data Optimization: Checking weather station data is crucial for understanding what conditions you’ll find then you get to the mountains. With Avy the process of selecting your weather station and viewing the data is cleaner and easier to tease out the information you’re looking for.

Glitches after first run everytime. Need to force close to run again. Hangs on loading info, but mostly from map it will freeze and not allow any selections/taps. Great site, app is very much beta.

Great concept, and can't wait for them to get the bugs fixed, but right now it's not the most functional. Pages usually fail to load and often can't get to the details about current avalanche problems.

Seems like a cool interface but it's super glitchy and doesn't ever load for me. It just stays on the logo page. Dont bother downloading it.
