Interesting new features :) Nice work Matt !

I've been tinkering with Suggested Mountains / Routes over the last couple of days, and have noted the following :

1. It suggested a route page I had authored, but had not yet signed the climber's log for, so I went back and signed it.

2. It suggested several area/range objects which had children that I'd already signed climber's logs in -- some examples would be Yosemite National Park, the Palisades and the Santa Lucia Mountains.

3. I was surprised to see that it even suggested Logistical Centers, eg. Eastern Sierra. But similarly, should that happen if I've signed a summit log for a child of the logistical center ? In this case, Eastern Sierra is a parent of Mammoth Lakes Basin (area / range), which is a parent of Crystal Crag, whose summit log I already signed.

No big deal, and I suppose it could be argued either way -- even if someone has climbed X mountain in Y range, they may want to know about the other stuff in Y range.

I was not surprised to see that People Who Climb the Same Things as you recommended many of the SP'ers I've met and/or climbed with :mrgreen:

Hope this helps !
Taaaake !

Having known and climbed with both of you I strongly recommend that you do not climb together: you will hate each other.

That's relatively easy to do if you want to do a bit of stalking. Look at what climber's logs the hot climbing chicks have signed and sign those and delete all of the rest of your climber's log entries.


Doubt that will work since the person at the top of my list has no summits in common with me.
