Choosing The Right Campsites
There are no bad campsites on the Smith, but yes, some are better than others. When choosing campsites, the most important factor to consider is how many miles you plan on floating each day. If you are doing a 4-day trip, you have to cover a lot more per day than a 5-day trip. Knowing the distance between camp sites is critical to choosing your sites.
With onWater you can...
- Find campsites using the map view
- Calculate distances between campsites
- Add a personal waypoint to each of your designated campsites, for use on the river
- Watch the “Calculating Distances” tutorial

TO FIND DISTANCES BETWEEN CAMPSITES
Click on your selected campsite, choose select a point from the menu bar, and then click your next campsite. The river miles will show in the information bar.
“Unlike most map-overlay apps, onWater is user-friendly. Whether you want to search for rivers you plan to fish on an upcoming trip, or learn more about the one you just drove by, the interface is easy to navigate and makes finding access points a breeze.”
