How to Navigate the Challenge in the App

  • Step 1: Navigate to the "Challenges" tab on the home screen in the app, once you are in the NH community, and open 5 Hikes Challenge 2024 by tapping "View Challenge Details."
The navigation page in OuterSpatial.

 

Step 2: Open a location to find out more about it and then check-in once you have finished visiting the destination (you should be able to check-in after you get home and not just on location). You can also sort by distance from your location or alphabetically.

See options to sort by distance or alphabetically at the bottom of your screen:

Sort by on screen on app.
  • Step 3: Post a photo, if you want, by clicking the large red + sign. You can check-in, add a photo, or add a post. It's always nice to share what conditions you're finding on the ground and interesting flora or fauna for others.
