πŸ“£ Call for Help

Sami β€” the original creator of this site β€” is full of hiking stoke but not quite full of all the knowledge in the Rockies πŸ”οΈ.

This site isn't meant to be a one-hiker show… it's an open trailhead for a shared effort to make info better, richer, and more helpful for everyone πŸ“š.

πŸ‘‹ Wanna Lend a Boot?

You're more than welcome to contribute if any of this sounds like you:

  • 🌐 You know of great hiking groups we should highlight, or can help flesh out info on the ones already listed πŸ“
  • πŸ₯Ύ You're a hike organizer and want to share your vibe, style, and what folks should expect on your adventures πŸ’¬
  • πŸ”§ You've got trail wisdom to drop β€” whether it's safety tips, gear recs, or β€œI learned this the hard way” kind of knowledge 🧠

Whether it's a quick fix, a full section, or just a friendly pointer to better info β€” every little bit helps 🫢🌲 Let's build this trail guide together! πŸ› οΈπŸ—ΊοΈβœ¨

✏️ Ways to pitch in

For a quick fix β€” a typo, a dead link, a group we've missed β€” use the 'Edit this page' link to the right of each page. It drops you straight into GitHub and walks you through proposing the change. No setup, and you don't need to know how any of this is built πŸ™Œ

For something meatier β€” a whole new page, or reshuffling a section β€” you can open the entire site in your browser and watch your edits appear live as you type:

  • πŸ› οΈ Open in GitHub Codespaces β€” a full development environment in your browser, nothing installed on your machine. Editor on one side, the site running on the other. Needs a GitHub account.

Prefer to work on your own machine? The development setup guide has you covered πŸ’»

Not sure which to pick, or it all sounds a bit much? Open an issue and just tell us what you know β€” someone will help get it onto the site πŸ«‚
