Map goes gray when I zoom in off-line

Yesterday while hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park I zoomed in and the map went gray. When I zoomed out the topo lines and features appeared again. At home with wifi I can zoom in as far as I want. Do I need to download maps to my phone before hikes?

    Yes,  download in advance.  And select high resolution rather than standard.

    On the phone app, in upper left corner, select the 3 dashes.  From the menu, select Download Layers.

    It is very important that you read the CalTopo Help instructions to do this.  After that, it is very easy.
