GPT00 - An introduction

De Wikiexplora
Saltar a: navegación, buscar

The GPT is not a public trail and no agency or foundation cares for this project so no official body provides any information and updates to the GPT. For this reason it is the task of the hikers’ community to collaborate in the publication of the GPT by issuing and updating the section articles.

As a minimum all hikers and packrafters should:

1. Provide important updates and alerts on Wikiexplora under “Recent Alerts and Suggestions” as soon as feasible.

2. Add yourself and your hiking partner to the section log under “Season Section Log” after you completed a section or section combination. This section log entry should contain:

- your section start date (the actual date when you started walking on this section),

- your names (or alias or your Wikiexplora username if you prefer more privacy),

- your hiking duration (how many days it took you from the section start to the finish),

- your hiking direction (southbound or northbound),

- describe your chosen route (i.e. hiking or packrafting route), the used options (if not following the entire regular route) and combinations with other sections (if your combined several sections without resupplying off the trail)

- and your personal perception of the section attractiveness, difficulty and comments that you consider beneficial.


3. If you have new useful information or you find an error in a section description, then update any other item of the Wikiexplora Section Article yourself during your hike or after returning home.
