Your first walk

Pick a peak, plan a loop from where you stand, walk it, and bank the climb.

By the end of this page you'll have one walk banked toward a mountain.

#Pick a peak

Open the Goal tab and choose a mountain. Cowles Mountain, at 1,594 ft, is a good first goal: a few walks will get you to the top. Tap Climb Cowles Mountain.

#Ask for some climb

Open the Plan tab. Summit puts your start pin where you're standing. Tap 500 to ask for 500 ft of climb, then tap Find my route.

#Pick a loop

After a few seconds you'll see up to three route cards. Swipe between them to see each one on the map, then tap Start this walk on the one you like.

#Walk it

Summit switches to the Walk tab. Tap Start walk and allow location access when your iPhone asks. The big number is your climb so far. Put the phone in your pocket and go.

#Save it

When you're home, tap End walk, then Save walk. The climb goes onto your peak, and you get a walk card to share.
