Mark Backcountry Routes in Cortina d'Ampezzo with Drawing Mode

Cortina d'Ampezzo in the Dolomites has incredible off-piste terrain. If you are exploring backcountry zones, you need a way to mark hazards, powder stashes, and safe routes. That is what Drawing Mode is for.

Activating Drawing Mode

1. Tap the drawing tool icon in the left action button cluster
2. The interface changes to show drawing tools in the right cluster

• Plan backcountry routes — trace your intended path with a blue line
• Highlight powder stashes — mark tree zones that hold fresh snow

Saving and Sharing

Once you have created your drawing, tap Save Drawing. The map is saved to your device. You can share the file with friends, and they can load it on their devices using Load Drawing.

This is especially useful for groups exploring backcountry together — one person scouts and marks the route, then everyone loads the same map.
