Intent-aware outdoor safety planning for low-signal environments.
RidgeRelay is a conceptual outdoor safety planning interface designed for environments where cellular connectivity may be limited or unavailable.
Instead of relying on continuous GPS tracking or emergency alerts, RidgeRelay explores a different idea: plan intent before going offline.
The long-term RidgeRelay concept goes beyond a trail browser. It is intended to support intent-based safety sessions where users define:
Users define trip expectations before entering low-connectivity areas, reducing ambiguity and improving shared awareness.
Trail cards provide a quick overview while the drawer reveals more detailed context like maps, weather, and photos only when needed.
The interface avoids panic-driven design and instead uses restrained color, readable typography, and clear hierarchy.
This is only a prototype and demonstrates a portion of the full RidgeRelay idea. It is not an emergency service and should not be used as one.
