### Snowline layer  ![](https://2269304551-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FxrVB0w8xRlkVueMgn8Dp%2Fuploads%2Fz4oWNh3aZpmhIe4o94aK%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=870eff9c-28ac-4d49-8e1a-87375f193a74)

The Snowline Layer helps you plan safer trips by showing you where snow is likely to be on the map. When enabled, it displays the **all areas above 1000m elevation**.

* If you’re heading into alpine or high-altitude areas, the snowline layer lets you see which tracks may be snow-covered, so you can prepare accordingly or choose alternate routes.
* Simply toggle the Snowline Layer from the map filters menu. Trails above the snowline will be shaded, giving you a clear picture of where conditions might get more challenging.
