Re: Route “Risk Factors”
I also like the changes! I think it will be especially useful for those just getting into scrambling to compare the peaks.
Climb the mountain so you can see the world, not so the world can see you.

Quit bitching like a little girl about others bitching about whatever they feel inclined to bitch about! You kind of sound like Roseanne Barr when she's hangry.LURE wrote:

Have a snickers and get outside, lurid.

Re: Route “Risk Factors”
You all are giving up too easy! We CAN all agree on one never-to-be-changed-again-rating-system. We just need to have a meet-up-pizza-party, decide on what pizza flavor to order... oh wait that would be just as hard. Forget it! Thanks Bill - it all looks great!
And 12ersRule is right... it's about that time!

Re: Route “Risk Factors”
I think it was removed, but here's a copy of that list I saved sometime ago. I found it to be quite accurate. The only differences I had were: Mt. Wilson, thought it was easier but I went up the south side. Blanca, also thought that was easier, but I had camped the night before after doing Little Bear so no long approach.Dan_Suitor wrote:There used to be a “Peaks Ranked By Difficulty” (something like that) where members ranked what they thought was the most to least difficult peaks.

It was based on votes. There was also a place where members could vote what their opinion of what the order of difficulty was. It may have been referred to as “Rated by Difficulty”.

Re: Route “Risk Factors”
Yeah, I removed it and created the new page that’s:
1st) Grouped by class
2nd) Sorted by overall difficulty
Much better than the old user-ranked page

Any feedback on my original request to add additional details to the Export Peaks to File?
