Synopsis

Trekk is a journal for hikers. Trekk allows a user to create an account, search for hiking trails, and add them to their personal journal. The journal can be used for storing hiking trails of interest or as a personal record of hikes the user has gone on with notes and photos.

Features

All journal entries and all notes/photos within are associated to each user.

Makes use of Google's map API and places API for geolocation and listings of hiking trails, respectively.

Motivation

Hiking is something I love to do. Moving to a new city, this is a faster way to find hiking trails and information on them. Storing the trails keeps in easy record for your personal parsing through trails on Google.
