Summit Up — Your Hiking Journal for Philippine Mountains

Summit Up is a hiking journal built for the Filipino mountaineering community. Whether you're planning your very first minor climb or chasing the toughest peaks in the country, Summit Up helps you record every adventure, track your progress, and connect with fellow hikers — all in one place.

Log every hike, never forget a peak
Capture each climb with photos, companions, weather, trail conditions, and your personal difficulty rating. Log chain hikes — twin, trilogy, or traverse — as a single entry, just like real life on the trail.

Track your mountaineering journey
- Mountain Quest — see every summit you've conquered
- Province Quest — track which provinces you've climbed in
- Mother Mountain — save your very first peak and the year you summited it
- Watch your total mountains, hikes, and elevation grow over time

Plan your next climb with confidence
- Mountains Near Me — find peaks around you using GPS
- Best months heatmap — know the ideal season to climb each mountain
- Community-shared trail conditions and difficulty ratings — real info from real hikers
- Built-in packing checklists — never forget the essentials
- Typo-tolerant search — find any mountain fast, even if you misspell it

Connect with the hiking community
- Add friends and follow each other's adventures
- Compete on 4 leaderboards: Mountains, Provinces, Hikes, and Elevation
- Share trail conditions, tips, and tags to help fellow climbers

Privacy-first, always
- No ads. No tracking. No nonsense.
- Private profiles by default
- Per-hike privacy controls — share only what you want
- Fingerprint login for extra security
- Export or delete your data anytime — your journey stays yours

Who is it for?
Anyone who loves the mountains — from first-time hikers to seasoned mountaineers. If you've ever wanted a simple, beautiful way to remember every climb and connect with fellow hikers, Summit Up is for you.
