How often do you explore the backcountry of any mountain range only to find yourself lost? All you wanted to do is experience some gnarly, untouched, virgin snow, right?

Well, I'm with you brother. Once too often have I veered off puny Double Black Diamond slopes to take on whatever Mother Nature presents to me. But once too often have I found myself stuck in a hole or lost in a ditch somewhere, just lying lifelessly as bears or wolves drool at my succulent meaty exterior.

Well those days are over my friend. Two of my favorite companies, Apple and The North Face, have teamed up to create a new and very useful application for your iPhone. Sorry Razor users. This new app will allow skiers, boarders and ski-bladers (such as myself) to navigate through the rough terrain of some of the biggest and baddest resorts around the globe. And with the help of Google Maps, you will be able to see a high resolution map of your surroundings. No more getting lost for me, suckers!
