Load Saved Drawings on the Map — View Friend's Backcountry Intel

Yesterday we covered Drawing Mode and how to create custom maps. Today, let's talk about loading those drawings back onto the map — whether you created them or received them from a friend.

How to Load a Drawing

1. Open Bonvo.Ski and select the correct resort
2. Tap the drawings button in the top-right action cluster
3. Select "Load Drawing"
4. Choose a saved drawing from your list or import a shared file

The drawing overlays on the map. All markers, lines, and polygons appear exactly as they were saved.

Interacting with Loaded Drawings

Once a drawing is loaded, you can:

• Tap markers to see any notes or labels attached
• View polygons that outline specific zones (avalanche areas, powder fields, etc.)
• Follow traced routes to navigate the terrain

Sharing Drawings with Friends

Drawings are stored as files on your device. To share one:

1. Save the drawing in Drawing Mode
2. Export the file via AirDrop, WhatsApp, email, or any file-sharing method
3. Your friend imports the file and loads it in their app

This is a game-changer for backcountry groups. The guide scouts and marks the route, then everyone follows the same map with shared knowledge of hazards and safe zones.
