Make Google Maps hang from a rope!

One of

my passions is rock climbing, this sport has led me to enjoy many afternoons with friends knowing the natural landscapes near my city when I was younger. It helped me to awaken in me a great respect for nature and now, that I have children, I share with them my passion for this sport. Now you might wonder what climbing has to do with Maps? Most of the Walls (the name given to places that are already marked or equipped to climb on the rock) are not easy to find, usually you have to follow trekking trails for several kilometers to find one. Of course when we travel to other cities, if not with a specialized local guide (which at least in my city are not easy to locate), there is no way to find these places. So in recent years, I have taken the job of surveying with my GPS the access trails to these spots, as well as some directions to guide the friends of this sport, so that like my family and me, they can enjoy these sites.

What if I don’t clim

b?

Well. That’s not an inconvenience either, since the walk to the climbing sites and the natural quality of these sites, are more than an excuse enough to schedule a walk to know them.
Surely in these walls you will find people practicing the sport that can tell you their experiences and for sure will help you to start practicing it as well.

And how does this continue?

Here is the link to the map I made, so you can contribute some ideas that you find interesting.
On the other hand, I’m adding the sites on Maps so you can put your photos and rate it. The problem is that the software won’t let me add the paths, if someone knows how to do it I appreciate the help.
Of course I imagine that this map can be complemented with others around the world and share among all our best climbing places!
