Easily keep in contact with your group on the mountain with SkiLynx. See exactly what run or lift each person in your group is riding, in real-time, including the run difficulty rating and their percentage down the trail, as well as their current location on the resort map. Chat with your group with just a tap, using customizable quick messages that let you communicate with a single touch from your iPhone or Apple Watch.

SkiLynx automatically logs every run and lift you ride, as well as how many miles you’ve skied, giving you a summary of your day and an ongoing history of your ski season at all your resorts.

Share your favorite runs, lifts, ski days, even your full ski season on Facebook and Twitter. Let your friends and followers share in your experience on the mountain, even when they cant be with you in person.

Location-aware hashtags let you automatically insert your current location into a message: "Meet me at #here" becomes "Meet me at Burnout" when youre on the Burnout run, or “Meet me at Base Lodge” when you’re at the Base Lodge. SkiLynx keeps track of where you are, so you don’t have to. Just a single tap to your iPhone or Apple Watch sends that message to your group. No need to type when youd rather be riding!

With your Apple Watch, your iPhone stays safely in your pocket as you ride the lift - your groups locations are right on your wrist and you can chat with a tap or just by talking into your Apple Watch.

Connect with whatever friends or family you chose that day, with SkiLynx’s one-touch invite-only group creation, or just ski solo and let SkiLynx track your day on the mountain for you.

Useless for me

Supports only fix number of ski resorts, it does not support Whisltler

Must Have

What a beautifully simple and powerful tool for staying connected with your friends and family on the slopes; though youll usually find me sipping martinis in the lodge.

Amazing! Can finally find friends!!

Every skier and snowboarder knows that trying to find friends on the mountain can be super frustrating. This is the first app Ive ever seen that actually solves the problem. I couldnt believe how well it worked at Squaw. Definitely worth the $3!

Easy and fun, great for skiing together

Makes it so easy to see where everyone is when we’re out skiing together. Chat function is great. I don’t have to keep calling everyone all the time! Love how it gives me a list of every run I ski all day, including difficulty and my total miles skied. Definitely a must have ski app!

Great app, good battery usage

Tried this at Big Bear for the first day of my season, and it worked great. Intuitive, aesthetically pleasing and works. Itll email you a summary at the end of your day which was a nice touch. Wish for snow!

Great App!

This is the best app for skiing in California. Very accurate. Makes it so easy to meet and find friends on the mountain. My boyfriend and I used it at Squaw and loved it. During a storm we could easily view each others location on our Apple Watches and see what % the other was down the trail. Im a beginner and hes advanced and always found me without having to iMessage or call. Highly recommend! We got all our friends to download it. Also, serves as a great trail map.

Great app but uses battery

The app was very useful for finding family at Northstar. It accurately shows what lift or run each person is on and how close to the end of the run they are. The AppleWatch interface is excellent. You don’t need to pull out your phone to see where people are! Improving the battery usage would be appreciated. We got in the habit of making sure our phones were 100% charged before the day and then only turning on the app when we were ascending the Gondola immediately before our 1st run. Even so our batteries (iPhone 5s) had difficulty lasting the day. Battery improvement suggestions for the developers: 1) Add a setting to decrease the frequency of location updates. It seems like the app updates your location every minute. That’s accurate but burns battery. If our battery is stressed it would be better to allow us to update location every 3-5 minutes. 2) If the app reports you are “not in the park” then the location update frequency should decrease dramatically (to once every 15 minutes at most). 5 stars because this app is what a watch-enabled ski group app should be. Helpful. Easy. Hopefully the battery situation will be improved before my next trip to the mountain.
