North Face Releases “The North Face Snow Report” For Windows Phones
|The North Face has made their way to Windows Phone with a ski and snow reporting app and it’s full featured, even including live tiles that show current weather conditions at your favorite resorts:
The North Face® Snow Report has everything you need for your next trip to the mountains. Track your day. Post a photo to Facebook. Get snow conditions, weather forecasts, full trail maps and other details for just about any resort you can imagine.
The integrated Facebook component allows you to upload status directly to your wall. The new Track feature allows season-long tracking of each day on the hill. Record weather details, date, location and notes – even in the backcountry. Track to any of your "added" resorts as well as search for any resort in the world. Access detailed snow conditions, including 24, 48 & 72-hour snowfall totals, for your favorite resorts and top 10 resorts globally. Spread the word with a resort-specific Twitter feed that allows you to “tweet” directly from the app using the Windows Phone 7b share feature. Track avalanche forecasts for your favorite resorts. As always, the locate function helps you get there and, when you’re on the mountain, the trail map feature allows you to check out the lay of the land. You can even link to the resort site, get detailed forecasts from Weather Underground or find The North Face® store near you.
