Guide Pace
Sleek, simple and effective! Great app!
Worth the $!!
Compared to doing it by hand it's great!
I love that you can enter miles and feet!!
Fast, simple.
Simple to use, fast Munter calculations. No need for conversions, this app makes fast work of your time planning.
Having the AMGA known Chauvin method is pretty sweet too.
Very useful & comment on an earlier review
Super useful app – it has saved me a lot of time in my AMGA guide training programs. I also find myself using it a lot for planning personal backcountry ski tours.
In an earlier review, it sounds like FFB Guy was using the wrong method of time estimation. The “Munter System” was probably better suited for the terrain he was considering. It gives an estimate of 4h 4min, which is right within the range he was expecting. The “Chauvin System” is for sections of true, continuous Class 3 or 4 cli

Although these calculations are simple and straight forward Guides Pace is one of my go to apps while guiding. It allows me more time to focus on the myriad of guiding tasks on a day to day basis. A must have for any aspiring guide! Spend more time on client care, enjoying the day and not calculating!
Useful calculator
Clean, simple design with easy learning curve. Obviously all of the arithmetic is simple enough and can easily be done mentally/in your own spreadsheet but this app simplifies and saves steps, and I'm all for that! I encourage non-guides to experiment, test, and verify the given standard rates. Remember, using known times, known distances, and a little simple algebra you can find your own "personal munter coefficient".
Essential Tool
Just completed my Level 3 avalanche course and GuidePace was an essential tool for quick, efficient and accurate tour planning. By using GuidePace and Gaia GPS, you can speedily build a tour plan and calculate leg times. With this method, my two full-day tour plans were accurate to within 15 minutes of projected time. Great app!!!
Useful for tour planning—climb or ski
I was skeptical at first…but I’ve become a believer! Great app and one that I use for work (mtn guiding), as well as days off and ski-touring/climbing with friends. Quick and easy app to help you estimate different legs of your tours. Input different terrain choices (skinning, scrambling, etc) and you’ll get a pretty good idea of your times. As I’ve used it more and more, it’s become more accurate—really great little app. I’ve heard he’s developing others, so I’ll snag those, too. Great app for
