Time Machine for AllTrails

See what the trail really looks like before you go.

The Problem Planning a trip in the off-season? It’s difficult to know what trail conditions to expect. If you are heading out in January, looking at photos from July won't help you decide if you need traction devices, snow chains, or extra water.

The Solution Time Machine for AllTrails enhances the photo gallery experience. It organizes the trail's photo history by Month and Year, allowing you to instantly filter the view.

Instead of scrolling through thousands of mixed photos, you can now answer: "What does Emory Peak look like in January?" in seconds.

Instantly view photos from specific months (e.g., "January Only") to spot seasonal trends like snow, mud, or wildflowers.

🗂️ Yearly Timeline
