What the map shows in South Dakota

Habitat: cut blocks by age in national forests and burns by year, so you can find the young regrowth browse game feeds on.
Road access: national forest motor vehicle use maps, so you know which roads are open to what.
Signal: where AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon will reach your phone or a cellular trail camera, from a terrain line-of-sight model per carrier.
Field tools: track recording with boundary alerts, range rings, pins with photos, first and last light, and solunar times.
