Website Updates – Part 1

Now every user of the site can edit alpine routes and add their own.

  • In addition to the impersonal official name "via the right couloir of the S wall", you can add a folk name that is known to everyone.

  • You can draw a route thread, and it will be displayed on the map.

  • Write a detailed description of the route, with pictures, etc. It is important not to confuse this with reports and articles. This is precisely a general description of the route.
