IPhone – GPS Tracklog from iPhone

gpsiphone

When bushwalking I use my Garmin GPS to record tracklogs, which I can later download.

I was wondering if the iPhone5 has a similar capability. This could be handy when travelling.

I have searched the web and the App Store. There seem to be many apps which will let you track someone else and display their location, but I have no desire to do this. I would like to be able just to log the location of my phone. There seem to be a couple of apps which seem to be geared at fitness and map display.

I don't need (or want) a Map display on the iPhone (because most of the places I would use it there is little or no mobile coverage).
In particular I want to be able to record locations in remote areas.

I use Motion-X GPS [comes in free & paid versions]

Can track using only GPS, if you have data roaming off or are outside signal reception areas.

You can pre-load maps at many zoom levels if you wish, for when know you will not be getting a data signal on your trip.
