Hi All.
I am after some help/advice. I am making a free online guide to ski touring in the Écrins, Briançon and Queyras region. I have made a free app via ferrata guide, and was planning to do this as an app but it is just going to be too big.
The site is very nearly ready and I am just looking for some input on how people would like to be able to find the style of route within the guide book. There are a few sites that offer guides to walking/skiing climbing etc and the search features can be quite complicated.
I am trying to make it simple (as it can be).
My plan is that on the guidebook page there is a list of all routes with a photo, making it easy for general browsing. You then click on a route and you get all the details, and you can select routes by area.
Above the routes is a series of play lists these are a blog/lists of routes that fit in a certain category. For this I am thinking of using the headings guidebook use, such as:
Grade (easiest to hardest)
Height gain (lowest to highest)
Aspect (grouped by North, East, South and West)
Alphabetical
Once you click on a playlist you will get routes sorted by or in order of the title of the play list.
What I am wondering is are there any other key groups/playlist’s that people would like to be able to search by for example:
Couloirs
Introduction tours
Tree skiing
Below 30˚
30˚ - 40˚
steep skiing
So, the question is what headings would people like to search under?
Thanks Rob
