The Mountain Range Project
Version: 1.7
The Mountain Range Project is a project focusing on the discovery, mapping, research, and documentation of the mountain ranges of North America. The project uses Google Earth, CalTopo, PeakBagger, and Google Drive to discover, map, research, and document. Google Earth is the backbone of the project, which is used to map boundaries, sections, peaks, and lakes. CalTopo is used for discovering peaks and lakes more accurately. PeakBagger is used for accurately documenting the heights of peaks. Google Drive is used for keeping Google Earth files, this website, and documentation. This website is used to fuse them all together. In version 1, The Mountain Range Project will focus on discovering, mapping, researching, and documenting the boundaries, sections, peaks, and lakes of 48 different mountain ranges in North America. The future of the project will include not just boundaries, sections, peaks and lakes, but it will also include saddles, creeks, trails, formations, ponds, glaciers, waterfalls, and rivers. Currently, The Mountain Range Project is in version 1.7. The 1 represents it is The Mountain Range Project version 1, the 7 represents how many mountain ranges have been finished. My hopes for The Mountain Range Project is that it will help turn another page in the history of Mountaineering, and will be used by mountaineers and hikers alike.
