It’s interesting that you @AdamGT have noticed that I’m in hibernation. To my shame, I have to admit that I have never been to Białowieża National Park. The nearest place I managed to visit was the city of Brest, but I was not in the forest itself.

Congrats to the Level 1 to 5 Local Guides. Nice start @pistikekuruc. See you at the next level.

Keeping the discussion in one place @AdamGT, I have the same trouble on mobile for the August Points Leaderboards #112, #113, and #119. Perfect on desktop.

Thanks for the feedback @tony_b. I’ve done some further fine tuning but there is a limit to what I can do.

I appreciate your thought of keeping the mobile optimization in one place but to avoid the current situation where we have some comments here and some there as we now have with your comment and that of @Annaelisa, and to might make it easier for me, let’s keep them on the subject leaderboard post so I’ll move your comment and this reply there.

After seeing @asadziar’s photo I had to do some research and from this, Białowieża National Park sounds like an amazing place to visit. From Brest, you were so close, just 1 or 2 hours away, well by car that is. If I had of known about Brest and Białowieża National Park I would have visited both myself when I was in Poland. However, from Warsaw I went south to Pieniny (Pieninski in Polish) National Park in the heart of Pieniny Mountains in the southernmost part of Poland and on the border with Slovakia. I did some water rafting on the Dunajec River and then headed up to Kasprowy Wierch for some hiking and mountain climbing.

Nice picture @asadziar :thinking:

That’s great news @Annaelisa and thank you for letting me know. Looks like all the little tweaks I’ve been trying are working. Unfortunately, I can see that they won’t work on all boards but we’ll give it our best shot.

Wow, 3rd place in Germany (Leaderboard #113) with my lousy score… that’s both encouraging and slightly concerning. :laughing:

Still, it’s nice to see that even on a less-than-stellar month, I somehow made it onto the podium! :3rd_place_medal:

Update on the Cover Photo:

Hello everyone

To ensure the Leaderboards remain 100% focused on original content created directly by our members, I have just updated the cover photo for this post. A big thank you to the community members who help us keep our standards high, and to @MarcoDavoli for letting us feature his wonderful Sardinian coastal shot (tote bag and all!).

ps: I love, love, love the Local Guides tote bag in the foreground Marco :heart_eyes:
