In thousands of simulations, STRIDE produced much more accurate travel times than the standard slope-only models. STRIDE also chose to use established roads and trails to avoid patches of forest or dense vegetation. In contrast, the slope-only model sent rescuers through dense vegetation, dangerous scree fields and forested areas.
