Re: The hike

I really appreciate the images, but also the commentary on how/where these are taken.

Have any of you (aimed obviously at anyone reading this who has been around up there) considered using a phone mapping application to track the 'where' of these? For hiking I use an app called Gaia, it's simple and decently accurate. With the subscription it allows me to download maps for use off the cell network. With just the free app, I can still track where I've been. The other plus is that you can make these tracks public, or share them with others.

Seems like there's a small photographer's navigational guide that could be made! Although to John Bush's point some weeks ago, increasing the traffic out there isn't necessarily desirable because of the tear-up of roads and locations.
