Search for a Place
Find a trailhead, off-road park, town, street address or coordinates for a meeting point, a destination or the map.
Wherever OnMyLead asks for a place, you can type its name instead of hunting on a map: a trailhead, an off-road park, a campground, a town or a street address.
Where You Can Search
- Creating a ride: Search a Place or Address sets the meeting point, and Search a Destination fills in where the ride ends up. See Create a Ride.
- Find a Ride: Search Near a Place shows rides near the place you pick instead of near you. Tap Back to Near Me (or Clear) to go back. See Find a Ride.
- Route builder: Search moves the map to a place before you draw. See Draw a Route.
Search
- Tap the search box and type at least three letters.
- Results show as you type. Each one says what it is and where, like "Trailhead in Moab, Utah".
- Tap the one you want.
What happens next depends on where you searched:
- For a meeting point, the coordinates and place name fill in for you. You can still edit the Place Name.
- In the route builder, the map moves to the place and marks it. Nothing is added to your route.
If nothing turns up, try the full name, a street address with the town, or a nearby town.
Search by Coordinates
Type coordinates as latitude and longitude, like 38.5733, -109.5498, and pick the result. This works for spots that don't have a name.
Good to Know
- Search covers places in the United States.
- Results near you, or near where the map is looking, come first.
- Search needs a connection. With no signal you'll see No signal for place search. Try again with service.
- Only the words you type and a rough area are sent to the search service, never who you are or your exact location.
On the Website
The same searches work on onmylead.com. When you create a ride on the website, you can also click the map to drop the meeting point and drag the pin to fine-tune it. See Create a Ride on the Website.
