Why Upgrade to Premium?
Built by Bret. Used by Bret. Built for you.
Hi, I'm Bret. I live in a cabin at 9,000 feet in the Colorado Rockies with my partner Bricelyn and our golden retriever Milton.
I built TrekWeather because I genuinely needed it. In 2015, I was on Mount Bierstadt when lightning struck and injured 15 people nearby. I wasn't one of them, but that moment changed everything. NOAA had the data I needed, but it wasn't mobile-friendly. Everything else just showed the nearest town—2,000 feet below.
In 2025, a weather app built by one person is a rarity. No investors. No dark patterns. No ads. Just someone who cares about getting it right because I use it too.
In a time of endless feeds and AI-generated noise, I wanted TrekWeather to be a reminder of what the internet can still be—a small, focused place that serves real people who love being outside.
