Interesting feature. I'm curious how the scores are calculated because I need to manipulate things so more hot climbing chicks show up on my list.

Funky. Apparently I live in Colorado now.

Which reminds me of a serious point: would it be possible to add log entries for areas/ranges? (I know there's a work-around, which I use, but almost no one else does.) It would provide a nice complement to these new features.

But there is no link to the climber's log on the main page.

Or if the page author creates it as a mountain, signs the log, changes it to an area/range, and then manually adds the link to the log URL. (The work-around.)

That would be great.

It might be useful to do likewise with routes too.

My bad. I don't know if it would be useful for minor stuff like custom objects, logistic centers, huts, and so forth. Certainly you could find other people who like hanging out in the same such places as you. It probably overlaps with mountains and ranges though.

Good thoughts, but you're probably right about the overlap.

I think it would be cool for lists, if someone has done all the State Highpoints, CO 14ers, etc...

BTW- these are interesting features added. So how are the scores determined? Am I overlooking that somewhere?

I'm interested almost 90% of the first two pages of my suggested peaks. And look! Josh is one of my suggested climbing partners. So is 1000Pks!

First, thanks Matt for all the work you have been putting into the behind-the-scenes stuff here on Summitpost. Your time and effort benefits all of us.

Second, these are very cool new features and the addition of the climbers log for the area/ranges is another good touch.

Third, I do not want to be annoying , but I really think it would be handy to be able to tag images. Whether pointing out which peaks are which or being able to identify which gully to climb, this would be a really useful tool.

+ 1000

That's a great idea.

Hi Matt, thanks for all your work, I really like the new features.


I was wondering, would it be possible to display logbook entries on Google maps? So it looks something like the ‘Interactive Maps’ link on Mountain/rock pages. I think it would be an interesting way of showing where members climb and might help in finding potential partners.

Cheers

Like IT. Thanks for the addition!

I like it. The mountain suggestions are better than I expected. It was also interesting to see the "people who climb the same mountains" list; since I mostly climb in the Northeast, I was surprised at how many of these peaks a couple of West Coast folks have climbed.

As i wrote in the other thread - yes, it seems as a fun feature.

How often does it get "refreshed"? The top suggestion for me was Griffith Peak, which I've climbed over 20 times. I just signed the register an hour ago, but no change on the suggestion page.

Thanks for this additions. Never imagined something like this ! Great idea, I guess not too difficult to do given the fact the data are there, only the idea needed to be found which you did.
It reminds me somehow of the FB's "people you may know" !

Yes I noticed the new features on other peoples profiles before I saw it on my own, I was thinking, 'now where the hell did that come from' just to find it right under my nose a few days later.
Very, Very cool feature, great job everyone involved in suggesting and thanks Matt for implementing the new features.
And you answered a question thats been on my mind for a while now about the logs on area/ranges. Hurray!!

I love the new features and it has given me the motivation to start logging some peaks that I have climbed in the past.
