WTA Trailblazer: Go Hiking
authentic ratingPeople adore the WTA organization itself and its trip reports: snow, washouts, road conditions and closures before you head out are the best thing about Washington hiking. But the app lets them down: for the past year it crashes the moment you try to search, trip reports do not sync, and gray text on a pale background is unreadable in sunlight. Many end up using the website on a computer instead.
Reviews are very specific about WTA content: trip reports on trail conditions, snow, washouts, road closures, tied to Washington and PNW. The gap between storeAvg 4.86 and textAvg 4.36 comes from one recurring bug, not fakery, people clearly use it for real.
