Why it surfaced

Corridor answers the practical questions hikers face between resupply points: how far to the next water source, whether it is running, what an alternate costs, and whether they have wandered off-trail. It currently covers Te Araroa, the Great Divide Trail, and the Pacific Crest Trail, with maps designed to work in airplane mode.
