Hiking Mt. Beacon with Nokia N95 8GB and Sports Tracker
This past weekend, my hiking class went up Mt. Beacon and I had my Nokia N95 8GB with Sports Tracker to track the hike. We were scheduled to go up on Breakneck Ridge but the instructor told us the the trails might be slippery that day. I absolutely hated this Mt. Beacon because the flies rained on us all the way to the top. Check out the embedded map and the data provided by Sports Tracker.
The Nokia N95 8GB recorded my GPS location as I went up the trail. Take a look at the map below to see where we went.
Here is the data recorded by Sports Tracker on the Nokia N95 8GB. All this information can also be found on my Sports Tracker page.
