    Hunt Buddy clouds on map

    I’ve been using this app for a couple of years now and totally love it. I’ve got a draw for moose in region 8 this year and the area has cloud cover on the huntbuddy satellite map. It’s only a small area of the region but it’s the area I’m targeting.

    I think the issue is that HB uses apple maps for the satellite map option and not google maps. When I look at the same region on google earth there are no clouds. I’d really like to mark some pins but can’t see the area due to so much cloud cover. Anyone know how to get a satellite map for this area for use on the app? Maybe a google earth URL?
    cheers

    One time purchase, but you can buy add-ons cheaply that show crown and private lands, etc.
    Handy when you're in the field.

    The initial purchase is a one time thing but the private land option is $10/yr. It too has clouds on some of its maps. Just this past Sunday my way-point is in a cloud bank!
    Take a kid hunting its more rewarding than shooting an animal yourself!!

    I tried all of this already, most of the links on that page Don’t work anymore and the ones that do work are not satellite maps
