When is Google going to do Google Topo?
I spent last night drawing up three hikes, using the awful "Topo!" software that National Geographic sells. I had forgotten just how horrible its user interface is -- it may even rival Lotus Notes for UI blunders. Too bad most of its competitors aren't a whole lot better. I can hardly wait for Google to turn its attention in that direction.
Anyway, I've been trying to plan a couple of backpacking trips for later this summer; one short one with Ben in the southern Sierra, and a longer one in the wilderness between Kings Canyon and Wishon and Courtright Reservoirs. Another North Fork, though this time it's the Kings River, rather than the San Joaquin.
I've uploaded info about the two NFKR trips to Flickr, with the tag "blackcap". (For each version, there's a trip profile, the approach, and the main loop.)
