EveryTrail is an online community that enables users from across the world to tell their travel stories using GPS data, photos and narrative.
Currently there are over 26,000 trips uploaded to EveryTrail from more than 120 countries, ranging from mountaineering, hiking and backcountry skiing to road trips and sightseeing, and many others.
Each trip consists of a map with the route (recorded with a GPS device), and photos. All photos are automatically geotagged (placed on the map), by matching the times the photos were taken with the time information in the GPS data. With the new EveryTrail app for the iPhone uploading trips is even easier, as it turns your iPhone into a fully featured GPS device.
Users create a profile, vote and comment on other user's trips and they can add trips to their favorite lists, friend users, and much much more.
Recently the EveryTrail team send Mountain Hardwear T-Shirts across the world to some of their most active users, see the EveryTrail blog.
