    lots of more remote areas are not current at all.
    most my areas show they are still thick forest when lots of it has been atom-bombed for years.
    Sometimes you can zoom out and get a newer map to see where newer clear cuts are. I read that they update them more frequently than the fine detail maps.

    Wow lots of great info here
    Here I thought BC back roads on my new garmin Montana had it all...
    Hope I am not the only guy with a few new things to learn

    Is I Hunt the best one to get next?
    Is it cell coverage dependent?

    iHunter BC does require cell service or data to get the maps and sat photos but if you select one of the maps or sat settings that say (can be cached) and scroll around the area zoomed in while you have cell service/data, your phone will cache the data and it will now have all the maps/sat imgs you looked at whether you have cell service or not. Your phone should have a gps. I used it on my entire hunt in 5-14 with no cell service.
