- Offline group tracking & encrypted chat via LoRa mesh
- Government-sourced snow & weather data, daily
- Slope angle + terrain analysis
Maps and conditions need no hardware. Group tracking without signal needs one LoRa radio per person. See the radios
You've been there.
The Dead Zone
Your group spread out. The network dropped. We had lost track of one of the group. 40 minutes of nothing.
The Bad Data
You drove 3 hours trusting conditions that were no longer current. Once you got there, it was completely different.
See your group.
Anywhere.
Each rider pairs an affordable LoRa radio, and the whole group stays on the map (position, messages, SOS), all over radio mesh. No towers, no subscriptions, and no signal required.
Your group in real time
Positions show under each person's name and update automatically. No manual check-ins required. You always know where everyone is.
Private by default
Sharing stays off until you turn it on. Then your group sees you, and strangers see nothing unless you choose to appear as an anonymous icon.
Communicate when cell can't
SOS, hazard reports, and private, end-to-end encrypted group chat, all over radio mesh. No cell network required.
From start
to finish.
- STEP 01
Open the app
Satellite maps, trails, offline routing, daily conditions and forecasts. Everything you need to plan before you go.
- STEP 02
Pair a LoRa device
Any Meshtastic-compatible radio works. One radio per person, a few minutes of setup each.
See compatible hardware - STEP 03
Ride, stay connected
When you leave cell coverage, the mesh takes over automatically, and hands back when you return. Your group sees you in real time, and you see them too.
- STEP 04
Stay in touch
End-to-end encrypted group chat, straight over the mesh: messages, positions, and SOS travel by radio, with zero cell signal.
Because things don't
always go to plan.
SOS Alert
Send your GPS position and an SOS signal to your group or anyone nearby. Every device on the mesh receives the notification automatically. No cell network required.
Community Hazard Reports
Mark hazards on the map: downed trees, ice crossings, avalanche debris. Visible to your group and the community in real time.
Out-of-Range Alert
If someone in your group falls too far behind (past a distance threshold tuned to your activity type), the app flags it for the group and shows their last known position. It is an early heads-up, not a rescue system. It does not replace SOS, a dedicated satellite communicator (PLB / inReach), or official emergency protocols.
Aventerra is a decision-support tool. It does not replace avalanche training, professional forecasts from your regional avalanche centre, rescue equipment (beacon, probe, shovel), or sound judgment. For any serious emergency, use the appropriate emergency services (911, satellite communicator). Backcountry travel carries serious risk of injury or death. You are solely responsible for your safety and the safety of your group.
Built for the terrain.
Proven off the grid.
Download the basemap, trails, snow depth and slope for the regions you ride. No roaming, no dead spots.
Conditions and reports,
from people like you.
Report what you find as you ride, and everyone behind you sees it pinned to the map. Current conditions instead of rough guesses.
Trip reports
Photos, conditions, and route traces from real outings, pinned to the map where they happened.
Condition updates
Quick structured reports (snow, ice, water, downed trees), so you can scan a trail's state in seconds.
Hazard flags
Washouts, ice crossings, blocked trails. Flag it once, and everyone riding behind you sees it.
A small radio.
A whole lot of peace of mind.
The app works great without a radio. But to see your group off the grid, each member pairs a Meshtastic-compatible LoRa radio to their phone.
Radios, pairing and rangeBy the way: we are currently working on our own Aventerra mesh device. Stay tuned!
Built by an enthusiast.
In the field.
The idea for Aventerra was born in the truck, with my friends, on the way up to the Chic-Chocs for backcountry snowmobiling. On the drive, we talked about how useful an app that everyone could use, accessible and compatible for all, would be for seeing your friends off the grid. So I pulled out my laptop right there in the truck and started building our first prototype.
I'm Simon, and I built Aventerra because no other existing app combines snow data, terrain information, and offline group safety in one tool. I'm an enthusiast and I live this problem. That's why I'm fixing it.
The mission is simple: make the outdoors safer and more accessible for everyone who ventures far from cell coverage.
