Todo

  • Filter by category (Trekking, Hiking, Road Climbing etc.)
  • Better Icons, or icons per category (DONE)
  • If you're in the US, request your location and focus the maps on your state. (DONE)
  • Add more photos of each experience, photos, pricing etc in a lower window. (DONE)
  • Better metrics and analytics via a custom library. Currently, there's minimal tracking in the heart of the code.
